WebP on pixelfed.social (lemmy.ca)

I see there's an update coming soon that will add support for AVIF (woo!) and I wonder if that'll also coincide with enabling WebP for pixelfed.social? I was hoping to use less platform resources by uploading smaller/better files.

Also, if they're smaller maybe they won't have to be reconverted server-side? It'd be nice if I could optimize them locally from RAW without them being reprocessed but didn't see any guidelines in help that would guide me in doing that. Or will it be re-jpg'd regardless of what I send?

WebP and the other formats are options that the admin can enable or not. I guess it's up to @[email protected] for pixelfed.social.

Ha unfortunately browsers kind of decide that, I like JXL too 😢
