Take your pick: 1. Purposely slow down your web experience by forcing every website to load JPEG. 2. Briefly inconvenience yourself by installing the WebP Quick Look Plugin while we wait for Apple to exit the Stone Age of image formats. JPEG was invented in 1992, and let me tell you, WebP is a significantly more advanced technology.

QuickLook Plugin?
1 project | /r/OpenEmu | 30 Mar 2021

Is there any idea of building a QuickLook plugin for ROMs into the app? [Matthew Callis](https://eludevisibility.org)’s old [QuickRom from 2008](https://web.archive.org/web/20111204193247/http://eludevisibility.org/quickrom/) stopped working in the Catalina 32/64-bit transition, but it provided a really great view of a ROM’s headers. I can see on GitHub that OpenEmu dev Cyco has a [relatively recent history](https://github.com/cyco/deskfun-preview) working on QuickLook plugins. Has anybody on the dev team considered this?
