Re: webp is a nuisance

webp is awesome, but has the problem that it's relatively new so not
everything supports it by default.

If you want to convert install imagemagic to get the convert command:
apt install imagemagick

then all you have to do is:
convert your_webp_image.webp new_jpeg_image.jpg

That will give you a jpeg version of the original webp.  You could also
use GIMP and just load and the export to a jpeg.

Keep in mind that the image will get bigger and that webp does stuff
that jpeg does like transparency.  If the image has transparency, you're
better off converting it to a png.  That will most likely make it a lot
bigger, but you will keep you transparency intact.
