  • The old gif format doesn’t support audio. Anything called gif with audio are mp4 video files. On the imgur site, you may have seen files with the extension gifv, but…

    Quote : “When you view a GIFV file on a website such as Imgur, you’re viewing a video file, which would normally have the file extension .mp4 or .webm. The server is configured to serve the video using the extension “.gifv,” but the video’s file format is unchanged.”

    Lemmy’s web instances do not display real videos. Also some applications, like Jerboa, do not display videos. Because of this, you have to convert the video to the outdated animated picture format - gif.

    This format appears in all applications and web instances, but does not contain audio.

    I think if we all flood the developers with requests for video support in Lemmy, things might change.

    As for browser traffic, I don’t know which IPs may belong to advertising services.

    I found some mention in the search engine:
