In my case, Illustrator and XD, which I use a lot. One of the best features of XD is the ability to drag and drop images into placeholders but I can’t do that with webp. In Illustrator, importing a webp file crashes the app.
For a program costing US$22.99/mo crashing and not accepting webp, which is so abundant, is extrem. Especially crashing for such an expensive program is not acceptable.
Webp images can be a pain in the ass to work with because many programs don’t support them.
Is this a Windows thing I’m too Linux to understand?
Which programs don’t support webp exactly?

Illustrator supports webp for a couple years now.
Must be on my end then. I tried opening one just now and it still crashes.
If it’s supported, then it doesn’t work. Photoshop also fails to open web the last time I tried it earlier this year.

Also, some sites don’t recognise webp images when I’m trying to upload those. Like, it’s literally made for web, wtf
