Why converts lemmy.world *.gif to *.mp4 ?

Isn’t *.gif more popular and easier to show direct/automatical in any browser and app?

    GIF is a huge waste of space, MP4 can do the same with less than a tenth of the space/bandwidth used.

    Not having to wait 10 seconds for a short video to load is nice.
