Summary
This blog post discusses issues with image files saved with incorrect extensions due to web servers and browsers negotiating formats, which can lead to thumbnails not appearing in file browsers like Dolphin and Finder. The author suspects that the mismatch occurs when images are saved with a JPEG extension, despite being in a different format like AVIF or WebP, and suggests it may be related to bandwidth optimization strategies.
