Three steps
Add one or many JPEG photographs.
The default matches typical JPEG quality at a much smaller size. Raise it for images with fine detail.
Use them directly on the web, where every current browser supports the format.
Why this one
At matched visual quality, WebP consistently beats JPEG on size, which is the single easiest page-speed win available.
Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge have all supported WebP for years. The compatibility argument against it has expired.
WebP handles gradients and flat areas with fewer of the blocky artefacts JPEG produces in skies and shadows.
The short version
WebP is the least controversial performance improvement available to a website: the same picture, a third smaller, supported by every browser people actually use. The reason it is still not universal is inertia rather than any technical objection, and the conversion itself takes seconds.
Questions
For the web, yes, on size at matched quality, and it handles gradients with fewer artefacts. JPEG still wins on universal compatibility with older desktop software and some print workflows.
Every current browser does, including Safari since 2020. The remaining gaps are old desktop applications rather than browsers.
No. Detail the JPEG already discarded is gone. What you gain is a smaller file at the quality you currently have, not a better-looking one.
Yes, if it is the master copy. Converting again from the original always beats converting from a converted file, since each lossy step compounds.
Free, and staying free
Thridy is a library of thousands of 3D icons in one consistent style, free for commercial use with no attribution and no account. The tools exist so you never have to upload an image to somebody else's server to resize it.
