Trouble opening images to view them is the only reason I can think of for such widespread hatred of an image format. I don't know OP's level of tech savviness so it seemed like a safe guess.
the problem I have is how several file browsers don't support generating thumbnails for them, and how a few social media platforms don't support animated webp.
That's fair, tho the last part is true of animated PNG too. Hell, a lot of them will be all like "upload a short, optionally audioless MP4 and we'll call it a gif"… :P
I miss discord animated webp with per-frame resolution and aspect ratio.
