Fun fact: GIFs have a redefinable up-to-256-color palette (using fewer for encoded videos is possible but rare because of the poor “returns” for the sacrifice), meaning greyscale images with visible banding or dithering are poorly optimized
Yeah, I keep playing with the various convert options including color count, dithering, etc., trying to keep the sizes small. webms do it better, but as “videos” they are subject to different permissions that don’t allow for easy viewing in some cases.

mp4 with h264 plays well in almost everything, and will be a fraction of the size.
