Public bug reported: It is not currently possible to open a WebP image in any standard application on Ubuntu (except Firefox). There is a now a small extension for gdk-pixbuf to support webp: https://github.com/aruiz/webp-pixbuf- loader
Such extension has already been packaged for HEIF (heif-gdk-pixbuf), it'd be nice to have it for WebP too. Once installed, any standard Gnome program can support reading such image, and in particular, eog.
