About the GIF format
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)
GIF was created by CompuServe in 1987. Each frame can contain at most 256 colours and only fully transparent or fully opaque pixels, so photos in GIF look grainy, while simple animations look fine.
Animated WebP and video formats are usually several times smaller than GIF at the same quality, so for websites it is worth converting heavy GIFs to WebP or MP4.
Best for short looping animations, stickers and simple graphics.
