What's the purpose of converting webp files to png? Isn't it potentially making the filesize bigger? Is it for compatibility for legacy apps?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Personally, imma use this script for the legacy compatibility.

My use case is making maps and character tokens for Virtual Table Top games, and it feels like no one supports webp format. One of the standard tools I pull up when doing my thing is a webp to png converter.
