This time, I uploaded two versions: one in WEBP and one in JPG. I’d like you to compare them and let me know which format you think is better. :)

📌 JPG (JPEG)

Pros: Highly compatible (works on all web, apps, and devices), reasonable file size, strong for photos

Cons: No lossless compression, quality degrades with repeated compression

📌 WEBP

Pros: Smaller file size than JPG at the same quality, supports lossless compression and transparency (alpha channel), developed by Google for web optimization

Cons: Limited support on older browsers and some tools, can be slightly slower to process than JPG

👉 In short, WEBP is better for web optimization, JPG is better for broad compatibility.

WEBP has a (significantly) better compression rate, but it is a proprietary format that is not supported by all programmes and has (and this has been known for some time without any action being taken) highly critical security vulnerabilities. What makes WEBP particularly questionable is that it can be ‘disguised’ as a JPG without affecting its display in browsers. This should give pause for thought, because it means that even after checking the file extension, you can unwittingly download and open images that pose a security risk. It must have been deliberately programmed this way to make this possible.
