I just did a test with the test with the first png I found and tt 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.
It may not be easy to see because the screenshot isn’t perfect, and lemmy compress it further, but the jpg clearly has some artifacts while the webp is slightly blurry.

For now I stand corrected, webp is better.
