Your browser sucks. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] tiramichu@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 week ago (1 child) My pain isn't in the browser, it's with other apps that are still playing catch-up. A lot of apps have added support now, but there are still edge cases. Animated webp being one. If i send that in a messaging app, usually all the other person sees is the first frame. It's absolutely not the fault of the format, I agree, but still a cause of compatibility headaches. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago Well, gif format existed before 1998 and the Web was being built with it, whereas now the format exists when things have already been built.
