Not a huge fan either, but can’t really see a good reason to ban them. I’d also rather not see more simple “Hello there” posts, but don’t wanna deal with a mutiny on my hands if I start deleting Kenobi.
That said, if it gets out of hand, we’ll probably do something about it.
Could we stop having animations all over the place without having allowed them.

It’s the autoplay that’s annoying, if they only played when selected, it would be perfectly fine.
Maybe pitch it to the Lemmy devs or to the app of your choice.
Sure I would, except they are currently overburdened from what I understand.
So currently we must rely on self discipline, or simply block users who make posts that have thumbnails with animated gifs.
Animated avatar/thumbnal - instablock for sure.
I do expect some apps to have this functionality tho. Especially those that are ports of Reddit apps and thus farther along in development.
My app is Firefox.
Sorry, didn’t mean to start anything serious.
No worries
Why don’t you want gifs?
