This is one of my favorite things about kbin over Reddit. So neat to see gifs in chat.
They're viewable on Lemmy too!
Not voyager yet
It just appears as a static image on Infinity. I had to tap on it to go fullscreen and start playing it. Though the app is still in beta, that might change.
It works on Sync
Thunder as well.
Dumb question, but how do you view the kbin page? I'm using Sync
I was talking about gifs
And my axe!
Reddit added the same functionality some time ago, I'm a bit sad it's a thing here too but oh well. People seem to like it. My favourite thing about reddit was it being text-based though
I wish they were smaller, like maximum twice the size of an emoji, maybe bigger for gif type images.
If you think that's a kbin thing, you've not used reddit in years, you haven't looked at anything lemmy, etc.
You could have gifs on Reddit too
Through New Reddit, which was objectively awful.
It’s viewable in Memmy for lemmy as well, also been on Reddit for years just not used much due to the culture there dog piling it all the time.
How are you seeing gifs in kbin? All I'm seeing is a url link to the gif and have to click the media icon button next to the URL For it to load...... is there a setting I need to enable to load pictures/gifs automatically?
I'm guessing it's your app. I'm viewing through desktop and it works fine.
I wish there was a setting to get rid of them in the app I use, hate inline images and gifs
