Also when it comes to »Profile Pictures«, the recompression of images is
aggressive and pretty useless after all.

represent »something professional« – with profile images looking like crap!
My suggestions:
1. Find a very good WebP conversion algorithm that:
-» has a high image quality to file size ratio
-» is very resource efficient
Yes. It actually exists! More than one ;)
2. Define good standards for profile images
(values that both the user and the algorithm can use for image optimization;
if an image matches the standards, the algorithm won't touch it)
Telegram currently uses 640x640 pixels. Is there technical reasons? Or was 512 considered "too bad"?
3. Tell users how to make good profile pictures »properly«!

I didn't find this setting in Telegram Desktop 3.4.3 x64 - where exactly is it located?

I'd like to see Telegram treat images uniformly rather than this weird situation where webp images are considered stickers. The specific format of the the image isn't really relevant to the user viewing it.
I got "wrongful stickers" as recent as last week. I don't know all the details, the sender was able to work around that by using "another of" drag&drop/copy&paste/screenshot/saving to a temporary file.
