The attached (NSFW) post is allegedly a gif uploaded to Lemmy, but doesn't play on Boost.

Does play in the Lemmy webapp though.

Same problem has shown on multiple occasions for different posts.

Could you post some more gifs? I want to do some more research.

Lol, do a search for [gif] over at lemmynsfw.com and you'll find anything your heart desires.

On the topic however:

This

And this

Maybe this

And some of mine who don't animate on preview, but on click (which the above don't at all)

Kisses

Gasp

Letting it out

Edit: links to posts instead.

Ngl I didn't read the caption and was very surprised lmao

It's also marked as NSFW, I'm sorry for the surprise, but I don't know what more I could do.

Fixing this. Next version will support animated .webp images. Thanks for reporting.

What's amusing me is that sync is playing the gif in the thumbnail.

Every time I've uploaded a gif with Boost, it wasn't animated. I had to upload it to an image hosting site and link it on Boost instead, and that worked.
