Would be cool to be able to also get emotes as GIFs, some older software doesn't support webp and avif

#

You can already save the gif version by changing the extension to .gif (this is the one used in discord embeds)

#

but an emote with an alpha channel will always look worse when converted to a gif

Android doesn't support webp?

oh I see

idle raptor Dec 30, 2022, 2:30 AM

Anyways thanks i guess

#

webp is hard to "decode" still for sure

#

but ideally they just get "displayed"

#

displaying is easier than "decoding" it seems

#

in my mind the word "decoding" involves turning the file into a raw data that can be used by anything
