MuPDF is a more recent development from Ghostscript authors, and the latter has been in the development since 1988 (eighty eight).

Up until 2022, they had PDF interpreter written in Postscript, the current version is in C.

If you have a hammer, everything seems like a nail I guess.

I haven't seen missing support of WebP in software I'm using, and also asked people of the software they're using to test it and check for WebP support some months ago.

I was curious because I use WebP pretty extensively for many years, and haven't seen any issues with it.

I don't consider web services to be a software. It's no news that many services don't support wide variety of formats, it's their decision. Missing WebP support is a minor inconvenience compared to other missing features of web services.

The article is about self-hosted website as far as I understand, so it doesn't matter what the external services support or not.

"Modern Digital Halftoning, Second Edition" by Daniel L. Lau, Gonzalo R. Arce if anyone looking for a whole book of halftoning and dithering.

>Go try adding a webp image to a Google doc and then reconsider your position.

Lacking support for WebP or for other common media is a flaw of a specific service.

Many websites accept videos only in mp4 + h264 + aac audio for some reason, while there are many other video formats and codecs which could be used on the web and in general. That doesn't mean the other formats or codecs are worse or annoying.

Windows 10 support is out of the box, I explicitly checked that in one of "I hate WebP" argument

>I've opened both .webp and .avif on Windows 10 22H2 in Standard MS "Photos", "MS Paint", "Paint 3D" applications before posting the previous message.

>Just tested in older Windows 10 21H2, and yes, in this version Paint doens't open webp

It has transparency support, unlike JPEG.

>I don't actually have this problem personally - all my apps seem to handle it fine

I heard this argument against WebP about 3 times, each time I asked people what software exactly do they use that doesn't support WebP, they told me, I checked the support (downloaded the software and opened/edited WebP file), and it did support WebP.

I deemed this "I hate WebP" just a comment bait argument in social networks.

And only some software. All my Linux software supports it and have been for ages.

DD-wrt is not a free software, and they sell licenses on their website. Does its license allows redistribution and/or selling the routers?
