How do JPEG and WebP quality settings differ?

Both use the selected quality setting. WebP often creates a smaller file at a similar visual quality in current browsers.

Why did my PNG file remain almost the same size?

PNG is saved without lossy compression. Photographs usually become much smaller when converted to JPEG or WebP.

Does removing metadata change the image pixels?

Saving a JPEG or WebP again can slightly alter individual pixels. For PNG, the tool mainly removes additional metadata.
