My pain isn’t in the browser, it’s with other apps that are still playing catch-up.
A lot of apps have added support now, but there are still edge cases. Animated webp being one. If i send that in a messaging app, usually all the other person sees is the first frame.
It’s absolutely not the fault of the format, I agree, but still a cause of compatibility headaches.
Well, gif format existed before 1998 and the Web was being built with it, whereas now the format exists when things have already been built. It sounds like a demonstration of feature creep. “Oh, so now we want webp instead of gif? Ugh.”
How is that the formats fault? Your browser sucks.
