heyo! :3 I made a post some time ago asking about the same thing but I kinda forgot about it for like 4 months >v< One of the admins said she’d look into it but I didnt get a response

Some people in other instances have animated pfps and banners but when I try to use a gif it shows the broken image icon and apparently its converted to .webm

        Well I think pict.rs converts everything to webp, and I guess it deletes animations so you have to do it yourself?

          Ohh yeh I guess thats it, so I guess the problem is it breaks animated gifs after being converted instead of properly converting it or at least making them a static image
