I don’t understand, why are the next to nothing in terms of gif-based communities in the fediverse? I’ve checked lemmy.world and piefed and it only really seems to be NSFW gifs, everything else is mostly dead.
Is there a particular reason there’s barely any gifs or am I just looking in the wrong spots?
We use gifs in comments.
Oh is that the comments I see that have large blank areas? I don’t think I can see the gifs on connect then, weird but good to know!
I think so.
I can’t see stuff from feddit.org because they have region block.
Can you see this?
Try Voyager or Blorp and check there too.
I can see that, buuuut I’m using the web/desktop/whatever client and not Connect right now. Wait no. I know I’ve seen some gifs on connect. Maybe it’s just that, some are blocked!
Yeah I can, on mobile using boost. Man even when there are gifs though, it’s really inconsistent if they play, load, etc.
There are a few, but not very active ones.
Lemmy world seems to have the most active one:
Edit: removed the obviously dead community
Because there are like 5 active posters between every instance.
You only get pugs Jesus and butterfly posting their content, and news here.
That’s actually interesting that there isn’t much of a gifs community around here. I’ve never particularly noticed before either. Even that lemmy.world community looks kinda dead on my end. And it’s not like it’s a niche subject or anything.
