No-fucking-body does ever want Google’s WEBP.

(Firefox displayed it eventually. The image was worthless, I was just curious about the lack of one in links2.)

There is a new (and really good) TUI browser — chawan, it has decent CSS support and also supports Gemini, it can display images if your terminal emulator supports sixel — and for some reason it even supports WebPee. Yeah, I know… I should patch it out.
Sorry for not providing a link, I'm on my phone, you can look it up on SourceHut. The browser itself is defitely worth checking out, among terminal browsers I think it's as good as elinks if not better.
@m0xee apparently, chawan is also not under an OSS licence, so I’m not going to even invest much time looking into it.
@mirabilos
Not that I insist, it just seemed interesting to me 🤷
It's very capable despite being in the early stages — so it's just not old enough to be in Debian repos, besides it's in Nim and I'm not sure Debian even ships software like that.
What license does it use? 🤔
@m0xee Debian ships nim, but I use oldstable, so.
It does not use a licence, it’s under “Unlicense”[sic!], a badly worded PD dedication with an attempt at a fallback licence worded so catastrophically wrong to fully fail.

I see where your scepticism is coming from, but I doubt it would ever happen in this case — it's a single-person hobby project unlikely to ever grow into something bigger.
Again, I do not insist, it's certainly not that kinda thing you can't live without, it's just "interesting" and that's it.
@m0xee even single-person hobby projects should use proper licences if they want to be used, distributed, improved, not a joking attempt at one that makes even lawyers cringe.
