@wowaname JPEGs are garbage and PNGs compress worse than raw imagedata bziped. Handling them from C is also comfy as can be. Show me anything with a comfier API. Doing the same with PNG or JPEG takes half a page instead of a single function, and requires actual logic to handle everything like palletes, alpha, and filters

Blame your software for being garbage and not supporting them correctly. With an API like this, the only excuse for handling them poorly is that the software sucks

@applejack webp's cancer because it promised to Take Over The Web and barely left a lasting impact since its inception, and as a result, support for the filetype is poor as hell
@applejack also in general webp is one of those "do it all" filetypes that reminds me of something like tiff

@wowaname Yeah, only thing I don't like about it. Can't tell if it's lossy or lossless just from looking at it, though it's easy to tell from the file header
