Gboard GIF upload fails (alien.top)

I’ve been looking around for a solution on why GIFs from Gboard are failing to be added on posts from the phone. Unfortunately I’ve only found old entries on GitHub and web searches with no answer.

Just wanted to check in with the community here to see if anyone else ran into this problem and might have a answer. I’ve tested this with the latest versions of Mastodon’s official android app and Tusky’s from a Pixel 6 phone with the same error. Server is on v4.2.1

Only thing I could recommend is attempting the web version maybe, but stuff like this is why I kind of would like GIFs to be natively supported.

If you would support the idea of A GIF search and posting being built into mastodon, would you mind commenting here showing your support?
