#libreoffice adde support for the #WebP image format of #gulag (a competitor) https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=60eaa424c5e213f31227008e1ed66a646491a360
If anyone hates having to deal with .webp files as much as I do, here's a firefox addon to request an original .jpg or .png file instead.

Show WebP Thumbnails In GTK Applications (Nautilus, Thunar, Etc) Using WebP GDK Pixbuf Loader Library
Is it a good idea to start replace PNGs in my website by WebP now that support is there, or should I wait for AVIF to be more widely deployed? AVIF is better than WebP and is now supported with the last version of Firefox, but still isn't supported by Safari. Obviously, I'm going to fallback to PNG anyway using the <picture>
element.
