Safety notes

In 2023 a heap-buffer-overflow vulnerability in libwebp (CVE-2023-4863) was actively exploited. Keep browsers and OSes up to date.

Common mistakes

Re-saving a WebP as lossy after converting from a transparent PNG can produce banding at the edges. For transparency, always use lossless WebP.
Converting WebP back to JPEG is an easy workaround for older software, but you lose quality; upgrading the viewer is usually the better choice.
