WebP is not compatible with all browsers.
https://caniuse.com/#feat=webp

But there is a trick to use HTML5 figure element with both source sets.

I would like to work on this issue. What should I do?

@mfaheemakhtar There must be a shim or polyfill to add support for older browsers. Did you search that? Also I can only assign one Issue to new contributors. Either you can do this one or the one I previously assigned to you.

I am in the process of collecting data for that issue, So I guess you can continue with this one. I will assign that later to someone else?

I like the idea but I'll prefer to stick with the "links" issue. :)
