Increasingly some servers are delivering jpg images as webp which gets obvious when I right-click and 'save as'. I'm not a big fan of this behavior and not too keen on adding webp files to my collection.

One way to prevent this, is for the browser to tell the server that it can't handle webp.

The Firefox add-on below works for me.

Interesting.

2 may go away with time, but the standard has been out long enough that things should support it now - but they don't. At least the services I use don't, others may.

Google isn't as relevant as they once were, I guess.
