The show piece at the bottom is kinda cheating, right? One of Tetris challenge is to visualize where the piece will land. Nice project never the less.

Particularly in the context of low-resolution pixelated graphics using a limited color palette, WebP seems a strictly inferior choice to the universally-supported GIF.

If I follow, you are suggesting that web users protest a format that has been in the public domain for 17 years by instead using a format which has existed for less than 3, and in the process render content inaccessible to anyone not using a bleeding-edge browser?

I mean all the licensing and incompatibility questions aside, one very cool thing about these newer formats is they (intentionally? unintentionally?) reduce our carbon footprint a little bit, by trying to save delivery costs. It would be pretty neat if my mac could make a thumbnail of a webp on my desktop, though. I mean without installing software, overriding security policies, or turning it into a developer laptop.

I used imagemagick to convert this file into a gif, resulting in a 119,265 byte file. I then ran the result through gifsicle[0] with maximum compression (-O3) to losslessly optimize it, producing a gif that is 29,711 bytes; less than half of the size of the original webp.
As I noted higher on the comment chain, this usage scenario is particularly favorable to the gif format, while webp might come out ahead for photographic sources.

I think that today we're just admiring the custom paint job on an old commuter car, and not the design of the car itself.
