 > > If someone uploads a JPG image, will the original file stay as-is? Or
 is it going to be converted to WebP and then deleted? Or will a WebP also
 be generated (in the same size), and the JPG will stay on the server?

 > WordPress always keeps the original upload untouched.

 > We are currently discussing if we should always create a WebP "full
 size" image as well - thats for small images. For large images, WordPress
 already creates a `-scaled` version and this will now be a WebP by
 default.
