I'd say Google has its own share of responsibility for the lack of adoption of APNGs. Chromium doesn't support them out of the box.

- TazeTSchnitzel 12y agoI suppose because that requires using libapng instead of libpng, maybe?
- maxst 12y agoAPNG support can be implemented on top of regular libpng. I have the working code.
- valarauca1 12y agoYou really shouldn't blame google, but blame KHTML (who's code base was forked to develop Webkit, and then Blink). KHTML didn't move to support apng until 2010-2011 which was a few years after the webkit fork.
- andyroid 12y agoSo to get this straight, we should blame the KHTML devs for adding a feature after Google forked it's code? While not blaming Google for never adding the feature?
- mpyne 12y agouh hwat? APNG was still years away when Webkit was forked from KHTML. Webkit was so long ago that Firefox didn't exist, nor did "Mozilla Firebird", and IIRC nor did Phoenix.
