I know some people call me a {expletive} for doing so, but I normally strip EXIF from things I post on the web. There's some stuff in there, like lens and body serial numbers, that's really nobody's business!
Having said that, I daresay that very few of us would be able to tell, with any degree of accuracy, whether an image began life as a .jpg or raw, even on a presentation size and quality print, let alone on the web.

Very colorful cloudscape ...
Edit: Not sure what happened here, let's repost the image and see if it stays this time ...

My main lens for my, uh {blush} Brand C camera does not have it, but the wide-zoom does, and I've found it really helps some times.
In the shot below I figure it gave me 1-2 stops for this scene, lit only by afternoon light from the "wrong" side of this building only coming through a few places.

A few years ago, when redscale was tres trendy in the lo-fi scene, I reverse-rolled an el-cheapo roll just to see what it would do. It was my once-in-this-lifetime shot at it, and nothing really came out very good.
You typically get a LOT of red, some yellow peeking through from the light that catches the green layer, and no real greens and blues unless you really burn it (see second example below).

Interesting!
I just started negative developing, using the Jobo, and I'm surprised that it's as easy as it is. Your set-up looks to be somewhat similar although much simpler.

LOL, I was almost tempted. (Yeah, right!) I had actually been up since 2am in the morning and I was starting to fade. I took the long way back from the eclipse and shot some of the ruins in the almost-ghost-towns on the used-to-be-main highways.
Anyway, here's a shot of one of the rooms. I have a thing for old crumbling buildings but I'm usually scared {s-word}-less to venture in more than a few steps. The door was open, so ... ...

For those of you who are not sick of yet another eclipse photo post. :) :) :)
Note the sunspots in the partial eclipse one. :)

Sometimes you can only push a lens so far!
I call this one "Study in Lens Aberration", and I can see two UFOs in there, a few blobs, and some obvious astigmatism toward the lower right.
Mamiya SD, 48mm f1.7, (close to) wide open. This is otherwise regarded as a very clean, fast, and sharp lens of that vintage.

That only lasted less than another minute. I tried a quick setup for a similar one with three-exposure HDR but ***POOF*** it was gone.

I've done quite a few slideshow presentations. I always do a standard 1.5 aspect ratio and crop and size to taste. Always works out well on the standard conference room projector or PC monitor.

It's gonna have to be bright outdoor scenes. That's like 4 stops slower than ISO 25, which is the lowest I remember shooting. It's will have to be a slow shutter speed at a fairly wide aperture. I also understand they have a 0.6 (that's ISO zero dot six) film, but I'm not that adventurous. :)

Yes, the down-and-under tunnel will be very obvious when you get off the train at Jackson.
They used to have a similar underpass connecting Red and Blue at Washington, but that's now closed pending them deciding what they are gonna do with the Washington station on the Red Line.

It was actually cross-processed in C41 in the Jobo. Below is another from the same shoot that did not show as much grain.
I kind of ordered an assortment of oddball films just to see what they would do and what images I would get with them. I liked the results from the Svema and the Kodak Hawkeye. I don't think I'll buy any more Retro Chrome.
Now I have to figure out what the {expletive} I'm gonna do with that roll of ISO 1.6 (that's one dot six) color film! :)
