gollark: Or... just a different one.
gollark: Well, apparently they're a moderator, but the wrong color.
gollark: I actually do want Civ6, but I'm on Linux, so their offer is kind of useless to me.
gollark: WebP doesn't seem very bad. It's actually open, and has modern features versus JPEG and stuff.
