@doxxy Mastodon converts all videos to MP4 too. It sucks.
@IceWolf .webp
feels like it was made by hackers and scientists more than Google. Plus I can get lossless webp images that are a fraction of the size of png.
@doxxy Honestly images are small enough we personally lean towards more open standards instead of Google's "standards". We make an exception for video though since video is /huge/ and the common formats are patented.
@IceWolf This really helps when optimizing textures for VR models. I cut the filesize of my otter down all the way to 5MB. The (4) 2k textures for it are ~900KB in total.
@doxxy Ohuh, didn't know it wasn't really A Google Thing. That's good!
