I post a lot of gifs in my work chat because I’m a highly productive individual, but Teams doesn’t have webp support. I thought, “Well that’s silly, I’ll just convert them to gifs, but webp is clearly a stupid format.” Then I converted one, and it had terrible artefacting, choppy framerate, and was over 300% larger. Now I’m mad at Teams.
Yeah, GIF is an extremely old format and rarely used these days. You just still see files being called “.gif”, even though they’re APNG or MP4 or something else under the hood.
