I am a fan of freedom software and I use GNU/Linux with Pencil2d to learn about animation. I really like to export my animation as Webm and OGV theora formats because they are freedom formats and not proprietary. I hope the developers will consider this feature in the next update. Thank you 😀

Pencil2D already supports webm. Just use the Export Movie feature and specify a file with the .webm extension. It uses the vp9 video codec and the opus audio codec, both of which are open formats.
