I don’t know what a .webp file is but I don’t like it. They’re like a filthy prank version of the image/gif you’re looking for. They make you jump through all these hoops to find the original versions of the files that you can actually do anything with.

Edit: honestly I assumed it had something to do with Google protecting themselves from image piracy shit

    I tried it on these platforms:

    • Twitter: it works
    • Mastodon: it works
    • tumblr: it works
    • Reddit: it doesn’t loop, video must be at least 2 seconds in length, not allowed in comments
    • Discord: not autoplay, no loop
    • Lemmy: no video hosting

      sometimes afaik you could still have success renaming the file to .gif or .gifv I think? Telegram and Whatsapp should also work afaik.
