Because most of my software doesn’t have support for webp, including but not limited to my Mac, phone, and messaging apps. Until everything supports it, I have to keep converting it to use it, so I just don’t bother saving anything as webp. In fact, I have a firefox extension that lets me save webp as other image formats.
It may be good to use for the web, but it’s not yet good for me.
I pretty much agree.
The only thing I would add is that it’s not our place to tell others to lose weight or to point out their weight; people already know they are overweight and that it’s unhealthy. We shouldn’t be policing other people’s bodies.
It’s also possible to be overweight and have body positivity; being overweight doesn’t equate to being unattractive.
There is a Magisk module to replace the Assisted-GPS Secure User-Plane Location (SUPL) provider to something that doesn’t use Google.

2·10 months ago‘Hallucinations’ are not a bug though; it’s working exactly as intended and this is how it’s designed. There’s no bug in the code that you can go in and change that will ‘fix’ this.
