Note that the thread is basically dead, it's all in Polish and uses words that no translator will understand, the OP is unfinished, and the main source of information about those lolcows is down because of a certain person who wants to completely ruin everything what's fun about them all in the name of personal monetary gain by exploiting the said lolcows. Also the guy on the photo is called Wojciech Suchodolski.
I notice that if you copy and paste images, including jpgs, they will often get uploaded as PNGs. Bit gay tbh, probably Google's fault..
Speaking of Google, a lot of their own products don't even support their image format webp. I'm convinced webp stands for "web penis" which despite being a micro with that file size it still manages to ass rape me when I'm doing the online.
Now that I think about webp more, it pisses me off more.
Rinus Tech Tips?
They've also had to edit out any mention of "Taiwan" in previous videos with a voiceover of "Chinese Taipei" because the chinese yt got very fucked off. If i am able to find out which videos this happened in i will post
Any time you "copy" an image by right-clicking "Copy image" in a browser, you're copying a raw bitmap representation of the image, not the actual file served. This is quite sensibly automatically converted to a nice lossless PNG when pasted to most locations. Absolutely nothing to do with Google.
This just isn't true though. Windows, and even X11 allows clipboards to hold multiple different representations of a file, hence why you can copy and paste rich text from Word into other rich text editors, or into Notepad.
Just because it's possible doesn't mean browsers do it. Haven't you ever tried to copy a gif and only gotten the first frame? Cause that's why.
I don't even bother with webp; I go to save something and if it tells me webp, I just back out and find it somewhere else. I don't know what the fuck Google was thinking when they tried to make right click save as more difficult.
I know there's a lot of hubub about protectionist Canadian content laws or whatever but I think it's a little extreme to say Vancouver has its own YT spinoff.
WEBP currently suffers from many of the same issues that so many emerging standards (official and defacto) have suffered from over the years, along with the blind enthusiasm from its supporters that are either unable or unwilling to accept that it's not quite ready for all users just yet.
