webp is awesome, but has the problem that it's relatively new so not everything supports it by default.

If you want to convert install imagemagic to get the convert command:
apt install imagemagick

then all you have to do is:
convert your_webp_image.webp new_jpeg_image.jpg

That will give you a jpeg version of the original webp.  You could also use GIMP and just load and the export to a jpeg.

Keep in mind that the image will get bigger and that webp does stuff that jpeg does like transparency.  If the image has transparency, you're better off converting it to a png.  That will most likely make it a lot bigger, but you will keep you transparency intact.

webp is a nuisance (imho).

I tried to: sudo apt install webp
so I could convert them to jpgs
and that did not work.

It is also not in synoptic.

Any suggestions?
