Every time I try to use webp the file is bigger than in jpg, why do people try to push it for the web ? Is it maybe faster to render for browsers ?
What compression settings are you using for each? If you’re just accepting defaults it’s quite possible you’re comparing against a lossless webp, which is quite likely to be larger than jpeg at typical quality settings.
I just did a test with the first png I found and it looks like the default were lossless, hence why compression ratio were bad.
Here the webp in smaller than the jpeg and noticeably better. Maybe it would be different for different kinds of picture, with colours, more details and stuff, but here it is clear.
For now I stand corrected, webp is better.

Or maybe just stop inventing new file formats for no fucking reason
