Thats why I built a tool that watches my download folder and converts webp and webm to png and mp4 preserving the original. Its still missing some features but its available on my GitHub for free as OSS
Get irfanView. IrfanView can open them and save them as PNG or JPG. I use IrfanView as my default image viewer.
I still fucking hate webp though.
The worst part is why apps doesn’t support webp like how they support jpg or png. That’s also a widespread image format, there’s no reason for them to not support it.
.webp? Oh great, I get to install Homebrew, search for some package to convert it into a PNG, figure out the command line options and then finally I’ll get an usable version of the image.
In case you’re actually wondering, its:
brew install webp dwebp {filename}.webp -o {filename}.pngWhy? Webp is better than both jpeg and png.
The answer is a couple of comments above your comment
