Comment (by svenwordpress):

 We discussed in slack the way to go. It comes to the point of image sizes
 and what is supported:

 GD vs imagick vs JS library

 - GD is supporting webp since PHP 4.3
 - Imageick isn't 100% sure since when it supports webp, but looks like
 since 4 years minimum
 - There is also a possibility to use a JS library

 So it looks like GD should be prefered use with JS as fallback
 1st GD, 2nd JS

 Or is it better o go for this?
 1st GD, 2nd Imagick, 3rd JS
