About WEBP to GIF conversion

WEBP is developed by Google and released in 2010 and is the universal browser support since 2020 for web performance, modern browsers. GIF was created by CompuServe in 1987 and is best for short animations, simple graphics. Converting WEBP to GIF gives you a file that works in the tools and platforms where GIF is required. WEBP files can be a problem when their support is limited — converting to GIF solves compatibility issues.
