Yes.

(Ok there might be a lossy mode but that is barely better than jpg via mozjpeg)

Size isn’t everything.

That’s what my ex used to tell me until she got cancer and passed away.

Smaller is not better.

26% smaller at the exact same quality is better.

Not if people can’t view or save them. PNG and JPEG are superior.

That’s what she said!! Hahaha amirite guys

It losslessly compressed ~150GB of my PNGs to ~75GB, so I’d say it’s definitely better space-wise.

Might want to check your math.

What do you mean? That’s the total file size of the images before and after I converted them to webp.

How is that possible when google says it is 26% smaller?

Depending on the content of the image, the compression ratio can vary a lot. The 26% figure is probably for “normal” photos. My images are mostly a few shades of black with a few white pixels (using a camera as a radiation detector) and I guess WebP is way better at compressing that than PNG.

So… detected any yet?

I need to hear more

What? Why? I see one number, I see another number, I report both numbers and because it’s not what you’re expecting, then “it must be my math skills”?

How does that make sense in any context?

Who are you? I didn’t tell you anything.

It’s absolutely not loseless at any kind of quality past web content

The WebP format supports fully lossless compression in addition to lossy compression. I used the lossless mode for my images.
