What would the best format to convert user-submitted images? We need to update our image pipeline soon, so I'm looking into various options.
It looks like you still have to keep jpg/png around for a few years at least. Even if you drop IE11, there's a few versions of Safari out there that don't support even WebP.
So the pipeline would be:
* png -> resize -> png/lossless webp * jpg/other -> resize -> jpg/webp
Where "other" is whatever format iPhone cameras use.
Is there anything I'm missing if I were to do this today?
