These images get even more incomprehensible the more Webp they become. Who is even making these trash images in that format? I've downloaded PNG from lemmy before so it can't be automatic.

Nothing to do with the image format and everything to do with reuploading to services that use compression

But this service we're on right now isn't compressing all of the images with Google's proprietary image format, some of them are still normal. So where are they coming from? That's what my whole comment was about, I'm just confused about why it's happening when nobody I've ever met exports or converts to that format.

I think the lower the quality, the funnier it gets
