Images are saved as .webp instead of original format (JPG, JPEG, PNG, etc.)

As you do not want a webp image, the best way would be to remove from HTTP accept header browser sends to server the image/webp. Then you get not webp images anymore.
Solution
Extension SimpleModifyHeaders
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/simple-modify-headers/gjgiipmpldkpbdfjkgofildhapegmmic
https://github.com/didierfred/SimpleModifyHeaders
exported config SimpleModyfyHeader.conf to remove the webp from being downloaded.
{"format_version":"1.2","target_page":"*","headers":[{"url_contains":"","action":"modify","header_name":"accept","header_value":"text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/avif,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8,application/signed-exchange;v=b3;q=0.7","comment":"Remove WebP","apply_on":"req","status":"on"}],"debug_mode":false,"show_comments":true,"use_url_contains":false}

@OliJen conversion software for which destination formats? Graphics has so many and more: EPS, PDF, AI, JPEG, TIFF, AVIF, GIF, APNG, JP2K, XPM, HEIF, BMP, PNG, PSD, …
Such feature would be more investment in time for Vivaldi devs.
It is easier for users to use extensions to get rid of some wrong content on servers or use external conversion software.
Sorry to say, but users working with graphics should have learned over the years and decades how to workaround image format issues..I can understand such wish with image conversion, but usually such will not be added by Vivaldi dev team if there is a easy way for users to solve a problem with external apps or browser extensions.

What wise and thoughtful words. Users should get this into their heads before asking Vivaldi to do something, or better said, before wanting Vivaldi to do everything.

@barbudo2005 Alrite calm down, Jamal. You can flirt in the DMs. I was simply asking, and I'll escort myself to G's Webstore.
Have a better day.

@Jiyasharma The problem of getting WebP is: website is hosted on server which detects that Vivaldi can use image/webp content and sends it instead of image/png or image/jpeg.
This has nothing to do with network setting or third party service.

Not meaningful ... he could use a free image viewer like Irfanview to convert the files from WebP to the original format, or he can use a rewriting proxy to tell the website he doesn't want image/webp files.
