Why one developer reluctantly switched to WebP images

Original: I guess I'm using WebP now?

A developer writes about reluctantly adopting the WebP image format on his personal site, walking through what pushed him toward it despite misgivings. The piece has struck a chord with other web developers who have faced the same trade-off between modern image compression, tooling friction, and browser support when maintaining their own websites.

Why now: Web developers are debating the practical annoyances and benefits of the WebP image format for personal sites.
