Not everyone is comfy using the terminal. If you're used to clicking around, jumping into command-line stuff can feel like diving into the deep end of the pool. It’s powerful but also a bit scary if you’re not familiar with it. When you convert to WebP to JPG, you might lose some image quality. JPG isn’t a lossless format, which means every time you save an image, it gets compressed a bit more. If you’re dealing with detailed images, you might notice a degradation in quality after the conversion. The command you’re using handles batch conversion, but if you have a ton of images, it might be tedious to monitor. If there’s an error with one of the files, it might mess up the whole batch process. You might find yourself doing some manual checks afterward.
JPGs can end up being larger than WebP files, especially if you're not careful with quality settings. If you have limited storage, converting a bunch of images could eat up your space pretty fast. When you convert WebP to JPG using the terminal, there’s no visual confirmation that you’re getting the output you want until you actually check the converted files. That means more time spent double-checking instead of just seeing the conversion in action.
