> "utterly obsolete technology"
this annoys me a bit. if something is still functional and provides value it's not obsolete.
as a web dev for 16 years, japanese design seems like a nice antidote.
the web used to be closer to publishing and documents and now it's more advertising and marketing oriented.
nowadays i can't even save a jpeg without it appearing as a webp in my downloads folder. everything has become so annoying.

- irwiss 3y agoI guess non-obsolete is publishing on medium which has 3/4 of the screen taken by sign-in nagscreens; a real masterclass of modern web design
- handsclean 3y agoIt seems to me that all WEBP’s problems stem from extremely delayed or still nonexistent support from various programs and platforms. Does anybody know if there’s a good reason for this?
