When you download an image and it's a WEBP......
Why is that a problem? Unless you use outdated software any app should open it just fine.
As an example, on my computer I have 2 (3 if you count WMP) apps for opening photos and 2 for editing ones:
-
Default Windows Photos App - Opens WEBP
-
Honeyview - Opens WEBP
-
Windows Media Player - Opens WEBP files, but I guess this is an obscure way to view pictures.
-
Built-in MSPaint - Opens WEBP, but doesn't save them
-
paint.net - Opens WEBP and saves them
And of course web browsers open them as well just fine.
Website forms when you're adding a file: WebP? What the fuck is that?
I remember once I was making a presentation using Google slides, I wanted to add an image when it told me that "webp format is not supported". Webp... Made by google... In google slides...

::shudder::
Can someone please tell me why everyone hates on WebP? It's supported by basically everything, has better compression, supports both lossy and lossless compression, and supports an alpha channel. It's basically a trade-off between PNG/JPEG for compatibility and JPEG-XL for features and compression.
Even worse when the image has a lot of whit so it's even difficult to edit out the grid.
It burns my biscuits.
Even worse when it actually is a PNG but the checkered background is not transparent
