    Dunno about “nobody.” Tons of sites use it. Hell, Telegram uses it for stickers exclusively. We use it everywhere on my job’s website

      Which is probably why webp still exists.

      Most of the other things killed by Google follow this trend. Stadia is a glowing example of this self fulfilling prophecy.

      Though, in the case of stadia, IMO, they should have probably worked harder to let people know that as long as you have a Google login and something to play with, you could have tried it without buying anything. There were a number of trials on the platform that were free to play. Since people didn’t generally know that, a lot were relying on reviewers to form an opinion, and most of the reviews were early access and wrought with issues that were quickly fixed.

      I miss stadia.

        Comparing any of the services or applications that Google has created to a file format is not a fair comparison at all.
