It’s been great 4 days here on fediverse for me. But I started to notice that there is barely any content in form of videos or gifs. Every content is just static in form is images or text. This is what I am really missing here compared to reddit. Is there any particular reason behind it?

    Seems like animated pictures in posts only work if it’s in WebP format but in post bodies or comments gif works too. mp4 should be possible in theory but does not play for me. See this test post.

    For the apps I doubt it. The native media libraries often lack support for animated images.
