... What was ever wrong about webp? As far as I know it gives slightly better compression than jpg at similar quality

The biggest issue AFAIK has been that certain OS vendors didn't allow their users to enjoy it while the internet went on to use a new tool, so they got a lot of broken images

That is your vendors fault, not webp

    It's developed by google, and google having a lead in something usually isn't a good thing. They might just make up their own extensions and stuff, and other browsers will just have to deal with this. Just like they do with other web standards.
