Webp is good and this meme is shit and played out
its interesting to me that this is only really an issue on proprietary OS's (mac/windows) as i've never had an issue with any image or video formats when using linux. i use all three but linux is my primary OS. mac/windows mostly stay at work.
OS doesn't affect what web servers accept webp, which is 90% of the use case for most people. The vast majority of people use computers as a web browser only
That's true, but its not always about the server, people tend to download images/memes/etc with the intent to edit/share. If you were on macos and happened to download a webp image in the 10 years that Apple didn't support them, you were in for some googling and/or frustration.
