Quality loss? Webp supports lossless.
I’m noticing that a lot of my memes are auto saved as webps, what can I convert these into so as to be most compatible and least likely to offend those that care about file formats?
Jpg
It’s old, as in 1980’s, so everything supports it
All I want is a picture of a god dang hot dog.
Best I can do:
wdym “terrible quality loss”; for one their lossless beats PNG
This depends, if your image contains a lot of flat colours (like a screenshot of a website) then PNG can actually give you smaller file sizes than lossless webp. But for most images (especially ones with compression artefacts) lossless webp gives smaller sizes.
But that’s not got anything to do with quality. That’s compression size
Lossless encoding, by definition, won’t have any quality loss.
Watch some startup “invent” a revolutionary lossless format that discards some information.
