(This is my first post sent from Sync, so hopefully I don't mess this up too badly...)

This might already exist, or might just generally be a stupid idea, but here we go:

I share images from Lemmy / Sync pretty frequently, primarily as direct images to Facebook Messenger. However, Messenger doesn't like WEBP files, and quite a few instances seem to be using WEBP instead of JPEG or PNG.

It'd be a time-saver (literally minutes a day!) and reduction of friction if there was an option to convert WEBP to JPEG on-the-fly when sharing. Right now I have to check the image format, and if it's a WEBP I need to download and edit / re-save before sharing.

I was going to say this would be a nice value-add for Ultra, but I'm already subscribed 🤷🏻‍♂️

I bet this issue doesn't actually affect that many users (stupid North America and its reliance on Facebook Messenger), but it does ever so slightly annoy me, so I figured might as well shoot my shot and make a feature request.

It's annoying enough that if Sync was OSS I would have submitted a PR already.

All that said: Sync is great and I'm so happy it was transposed from Reddit.
