This affects all browsers and not just Chrome, as the media falsely reported it. Mozilla just rolled out a fix, and Brave is looking into it. This bug is likely related to the “zero-click” iOS 0day that was reported by Citizenlab last week.

    I have always disliked webp for its inconvenience when I try to save and share images. Nice to know people who actually know shit about it might have concerns also, I guess.

      It’s so annoying when I just want to share a gif from tumblr to telegram. Pasting the link doesn’t show the gif, saving the gif doesn’t show the gif, it’s a horrible format

      Edit: I’m talking about the webp format when I say “gif”, I just want to share funny me me with friends

          Both, since it’s barely supported by anything I use and it doesn’t seem like webp solves anything that gif doesn’t already do

            The file size and quality is much better on webp.

              Yep webp offers thousands to millions more colors compared to gif’s 256. Full alpha support. Not the 1bit alpha of gif. And is exponentially smaller file size for the same resolution and time.

      Maybe don’t use programs from 1996

      (Or when you do, don’t complain that new shit doesn’t work.)
