Only because of ~~giphy~~ other platforms being shut down soon. No other reason. Just need a new place to show GIFs. Pretty important. Just normal GIFs.

Some communities currently just show a link which directs to your browser and it's not a smooth experience.

I just want that one of Homer backing into a hedge or Matt Damon turning old at the end of saving private Ryan. Just normal fun GIFs.

Totally innocent normal GIFs.

On redgifs.

You can try Pixelfed a federated Instagram alterative but I'm not sure if it supports gifs yet.

It is a still image on jerboa, and I'm referring to posts, rather than comments, to allow creators to share their work in some communities where a link to that domain is well used.

Like highqualitygifs, I would assume. I wouldn't know I don't use redgifs that often so I'm unsure where it would be most popular.

It would also be useful to have a "filter by content type" akin to RES's filters, to allow users to view only text/link/image/gif content in their feed when they're in the mood for only seeing good text-selfposts or ONLY GIFs of, for example Homer Simpson.
