It’s an interesting idea. I’m not here really to give my input either way, but I just wanted to note on my client, the animation is a static image and when tap on it I get this message:
It’s not an issue, but it ends up opening the in-app browser and from there plays as a video
Also, the app has some info it includes when trying to open files, not sure if it’s useful:
It’s not a big deal at all and if you don’t care I apologize for wasting your time. But people here seem to like puzzling out little issues on the fediverse.
Thanks again for the original post, though! It’s a fun approach
