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.

    I don’t even think all apps supported redgifs. I’m making a web app and… how in the fuck am I supposed to support that website? Other image hosts have an extension like .gif in their URL so that’s easy, but what about redgifs? Am I supposed to hard-code something specifically for them? That doesn’t sound right.

      Sync did.

      I used to scroll through and save GIFs of the guy from blink 128 mouthing the words “wtf” and the GIFs of Patrick Bateman from American psycho nodding in approval.

      And they would all save to the Reddit folder on my phone.

      And then they’d autoupload to Google photos, and then my wife would see them too.

      And then she’d say no way am I doing that
