discussion Have GIFs fallen off?

[DamianSolo]

In the sense of us having very few GIF-worthy moments in pop culture compared to how it used to be, yes, but not overall.

They fell off since they don't count as views for the SBHTS

Considering I've seen 2 of my gifs in here (one iconic), I would say no.

Yes for the locals and it's all facebook's fault. Facebook has acquired Giphy years ago and basically killed it, leaving basically every social media that uses their search engine with mid search results (that's why you constantly see the same tired gifs for anything that you type). Basically if we had great gif search platform like (like Google's Tenor) we would see a resurge in gif use but facebook holds monopoly over social media so it's not gonna happen I fear

No and whoever says otherwise is wrong

I heard Gen z asking why millenials use gifs so much on the internet once. It's a people in their 30s thing
