.webp
.webp is SILESIAN VANTABLACK BRIMSTONE straight from the FIERY DEPTHS OF NIGGERHELL!!!!!!!!!!!
.webp is a file extension that was created by the devil himself and has since been adopted and frequently utilized by us mortals. Some theorize that over 80% of images on the internet are now formatted as a .webp, many of them coincidently being the EXACT images that you want to upload to imageboards such as soyjak.party.
History
The people who control the internet want us to believe that .webp was created by Google (of course) back in September 2010 as a replacement for the jpeg and png file formats (even though those two formats were fine despite all the memes that people made about them around the time).[1]
Why it sucks
As mentioned before, .webp is not a supported file format on most (probably every) website where users upload digital images. The reason why it isn't compatible is because it's an absolute bitch to encode and decode these files. Look up "The seven layers of OSI", I don't really have the patience to explain this. Also, for some reason the lossy-ness of these images is off the charts level of bad, which ironically Google was trying to fix.
Getting around it
If you want to post the image that's being stored as a webp file, first you have to save the file onto your computer, then you have to go to a file conversion site like https://cloudconvert.com/webp-converter, then you have to select the file that you just saved and then click the dropdown button and click the file extension that you want to convert the file to. Then you click "convert" and wait half a minute for the file to convert. After that you have to download the new file and go back to your imageboard tab, but at that point janny already deleted the thread.
A faster alternative would be pasting it into an image editor like paint.net or whatever and then saving the newly pasted in image as a .png
