Community posts no longer allow animated gifs?

I just tried to upload an animated gif to another thread, but the post editor converted the .gif file to a static .jpeg. Anybody else seeing this behavior?

They still display in old posts. Testing preview in this thread:

@Rafael_ANEIC-PY , your parrots broke the community.

I am but a mere member of the glorious cult of the parrot, all credit is due to the one who initiated me on the path of the parrot @MultiTech_Visions

I had that happen to me too @Marc_Dillon

Letโ€™s try somethingโ€ฆ

hereโ€™s a small sized gif (406 kb)
3X_5_7_57dcd34814a7e9fa9e3e068a08f8afe224f126c5.gif

Hereโ€™s a larger one (2.88 mb)

Seems itโ€™s a size thingโ€ฆ

So hereโ€™s the same matrix one reduced to 1.4 mb

The gif I tried to upload earlier was only 803 kb.

Here is a gif that I had previously, and sucessfully, uploaded to another thread. It has now been converted to static jpeg, as all my other uploads do

@MultiTech_Visions are these hosted gif files that you posted, or did you upload local files?

I can still post hosted gifs. It is the uploaded local files that are being auto-converted.

EDIT: wait, maybe I canโ€™t do that either, this is just acting real funny now.

That hurt 3X_4_a_4a1239de1f866c4032ac19b1196ff1691e5955e8.gif

All of those gifs were uploaded from my computer. I have a large folder of awesome gifs.

Damn. I guess Iโ€™ve just been ban-hammered.

I think Iโ€™m gonna play with the API and create an app for it

I was able to add this using the HTML editor.

I don't know if anyone would want to do all this to make it work 

I tried just copying and pasting one of the parrots I posted in those threads, good times, lets see if it works:

Rafael_ANEICPY_1-1643376623675.gifYou will add Dark Mode to the new forum Rafael_ANEICPY_2-1643376646630.gif

EDIT: apparently it works, btw I don't know if I'm replying to the current post or the old ones, this nested threading is nice, but how do I hide it?

 

 

Try with one made through my app or the https://parrotify.github.io/
