GIFs aren’t something new for users. We were already able to attach or link GIFs many times. The platform is making it more accessible, and that new way reminds us of the feature on Discord. If you’re using Discord, you probably know you can send GIFs by searching keywords on GIPHY or Tenor. Reddit’s new feature is similar to that.
Reddit Makes it Easier to Share GIFs With The GIPHY Support
Also, GIPHY brought an option for the moderators. Now, they can choose between NFSW and SFW content. If they don’t want to let users post NFSW GIFs, they can head up to the moderation settings. Even if the NFSW GIFs aren’t available now, GIPHY support is enabled by default on every subreddit.
The GIF support was a problem for Reddit. Finally, they solve the problem with GIPHY’s collaboration. GIPHY has an extensive image library, and you’ll probably find everything you want on it.
If you plan to try it on mobile, be sure your application is up-to-date. Then it will be usable on many subreddits.
