WebP is a raster graphics file format developed by Google intended as a replacement for JPEG, PNG, and GIF file formats. It supports both lossy and lossless compression, [8] as well as animation and alpha transparency. Google announced the WebP format in September 2010, and released the first stable version of its supporting library in April 2018.

The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file format was created as a free, open-source alternative to GIF. The PNG file format supports 8-bit (256 colors) paletted images (with optional transparency for all palette colors) and 24-bit truecolor (16 million colors) or 48-bit truecolor with and without alpha channel – while GIF supports only 8-bit ...
Free Lossless Image Format (FLIF) is a lossless image format claiming to outperform PNG, lossless WebP, lossless BPG and lossless JPEG 2000 in terms of compression ratio on a variety of inputs. [ 4 ]
PNG is a raster graphics format, encoding the value of each individual pixel, while SVG is a vector graphics format that encodes an image as a series of geometric shapes. If this confuses you, don't worry; you don't need to understand the technical aspects to create or upload images.
Glenn Randers-Pehrson spearheaded efforts to reconcile the PNG purists' position with that of APNG proponents by recommending changes to APNG's format and proposing the use of a unique MIME type (e.g., video/png), but the APNG proponents only added the different MIME type (image/apng) [5] while insisting on the use of the .png extension instead ...
The game engine GameMaker designates bzip2 + QOI as the default format of texture groups since version 2022.1.0.609, to achieve the better compression but still quicker to decompress, while the standalone QOI and PNG formats are optional for the even faster performance and better compabilities respectively.

AVIF was designed by the foundation to make up for the shortcomings of other image codecs, including PNG, GIF, and WebP. [64] AVIF is generally smaller in size than both WebP and PNG. [65] AVIF supports animation while PNG does not and has a superior image quality when compared to PNG. [66]
