Transparent in the post is in quotes, so they mean PNGs that look like they have the checkered placeholder that means it’s a transparent background, but the checkered part is actually an opaque background.
No, when you save a PNG as a jpeg, the background is saved as solid white or black. Saving the checkered pattern requires effort or you’re saving things by taking screenshots.
What’s wrong with transparent pngs?
But that’s not transparent, unless the penguin is trans and a parent
Aaah, these kinds of transparent PNG. How many times i was deceived. Straight to Hell.
This is the way
Straight to heaven
skavau is a clown
… That isn’t transparent, that is a white background
What am I missing here?

Oh dooohhhh! It was so obvious that I totally missed it :)
I definitely missed it too
I think it should read “transparent” pngs, i.e. pngs that don’t actually have a transparent background but a checkered background.
OK, now this I can get behind.
Presumably because you, too, have a checkered background?
But I am also transparent about it.
Am I Schrodinger.png?
I think since it’s in quotes, they mean the kind where it’s not actually transparent and has the checkerboard background baked into the image
Transparent pngs are fine. It’s the “transparent” ones that are evil.
It’s just some bigot who hates parents who are trans & pseudorandom number generators.
People who probably didn’t realize they were pngs and saved them as jpgs. I believe humans call that a “skill issue”.

Sometimes it’s formatted as *.png too. Straight to hell.
