Reupload!

Seems I can finally upload GIFs directly without hassle! The entire NSFW Lemmy community needs to start doing this if we want to see it grow, and of course, have great content 😋

The app I use is called Boost, and it’s currently in public testing, but should be available soon. If you’re using another mobile app to view this, please let me know if:

1. You saw a preview of the GIF before opening the post, even if it was just a thumbnail.
2. The GIF loaded and was playable within the app
3. The experience overall was good

Thanks, and I plan on pushing more content to revitalize our NSFW hub away from Reddit! ❤️

It’s pretty cool, just not available in any mobile app yet (that I’ve seen)

It’s definitely a dream

Thanks. As soon as there’s no issue with attaching GIFs directly (uploading), that’ll be the preferred method I think. At least for mobile compatibility.

Yeah, seems like the link implementation on most/all mobile apps, and some web interfaces, is still a WIP. lemmy.world shows it in-line which is nice. Boost for Lemmy should be available for Android in the coming weeks. I’ve tried uploading GIFs directly and it never seems to work.

Looking for some feedback with this one! New to the Lemmy scene, so there may be some bugs :P On desktop, the GIF can be played in-line just fine. When previewing the post on my phone, I can’t even open the link (this also may be down to the app I use, which is Jerboa). Let me know what your guys’ experience is with this post please ❤️
