This is how every new thing starts though. You don't just get better standards overnight. Jpg and png didn't happen overnight either. PNG had this problem for quite a while.

It's not a problem with WebP. It's a problem with tooling that aren't moving forwards to objectively more effective formats.

It came out in the past 15 years. Most "common" formats like png and jpg came out in the 90s. Others like tif, bmp, and gif are from the 80s.

So yeah, it is "new", it's just very relative.

Yea I have nothing against WebP myself. I also wish HEIC was more widely supported

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago

HEIC now has a licensing cost to it, meaning devs have to pay to make their software able to open it. Microsoft recently removed HEIC support from their software because of it.
