Considering "jpeg" has become the shorthand for "digital picture", it would be a shame not to capitalise on it.

I feel like "jpeg" has generally become a shorthand for "low quality compressed digital picture"
Hence the meme response "Needs more jpeg" https://old.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/2ct3ax/e...
In the photography world it's shorthand for "photo unedited straight from the camera". Popular with Fujifilm cameras especially due to their 'film simulation' modes which apply basically a filter to the image.
Not really? Unedited would be some sort of raw. JPEG usually implies preprocessed by the camera

I feel like you need to find better places on the internet. It's no longer 1997 downloading from dial up.
What makes jpeg compression bad isn’t low bandwidth. It’s really good at compressing an image for that.
What makes jpeg bad is that the compression artifacts multiply when a jpeg gets screen captured and then re-encoded as a jpeg, or automatically resized and recompressed by a social media platform. And that definitely isn’t a problem that has gone away since dialup, people do that more than ever.
"diJital PEGchure"
Is it pronounced jay-peg or gee-peg?

Nah, that's WEBP, the most hated file format.
JPEG XS :D

Excess?!? I certainly don't want any of that in my image encoding formats!
Exactly. Image compression should excel at avoiding excess.
Though maybe some people think the JPEG committee is now creating spreadsheet formats...
