There is an easy fix though. Just open the image in Gimp and then export it as a jpeg or PNG.

Spending up to a minute or more opening a huge-ass program to just convert one single image doesn't seem exactly elegant to me. Maybe it's easy but it's also a bit of a pain.

he's a Linux user doing stupid convoluted things for simple outcomes is kinda their thing

convert image.webp image.png in your terminal should do the trick, if you're on Linux

i don't have a convert command, i usually just use ffmpeg though

Look for a package called imagemagick and install that. Now enjoy the depths of programmatic image manipulation!

Huh, I thought it was a default on most distros. Definitely came with mine

But yeah, ffmpeg works just fine in that case
