WebP actually is pretty widely used... I suspect over half of browsing sessions load at least one WebP image.

And was WebP widely used before Chrome enabled support for it?

WebP was supported in Chrome about a decade before it became widely used. It was even already supported before the format was even finalized: lossless and animation were added after the first (lossy-still-only) WebP support was enabled in Chrome.
