People want to use images outside of browsers too.

What apps are you using in 2025 that handle images but doesn't support webp?

I can't think of any on my Fedora desktop for instance.

Luminar Neo, for example, doesn't handle webp. And there's more than just Fedora, IIRC.

Lots of websites that expect me to upload images only accept jpeg and png.

Another one I recently interacted with are video backgrounds for zoom. Those apparently can only be jpeg, not even png
