#signal found time to introduce the "feature" "animated gif support" (which I'm sure everyone who wants to get on others' nerves but no one else has been waiting for), even to send out a public announcement, but no time for to offer a checkbox to turn (vacuous) animations off for people who don't want them 😠

priorities ...

(already got hit by one before this was rolled out to desktop, had to delete the message since there was no other way to turn the maddening thing off.)

Animated GIF Support Is Here Now you can easily send animated GIFs in Signal Desktop without reaching for your phone. We built a new picker that helps you quickly search for the right emoji,sticker, or GIF that's perfect for the moment. 3m

a checkbox to turn animations off isn't asking too much if there was time to introduce them with pomp and circumstance?

#accessibility is more important than ... whatever this is (not even novelty).
