Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Can't zoom in bc your stupid meme is a 0 second gif. Downvoted for not being able to read such small text.
There's something ironic about this complaint of a free thing someone posted to a free website where everyone is arguing the merits of tipping for services.
Here ya go:
Which Lemmy client?
So you can shit on me, as if it was my fault somehow and not that OP couldn't post a picture as a picture format? Yeah no. I saw what happened in the other comments on this post that said something similar to me. Downvote city.
No, I'm genuinely curious about the different clients we, the Lemmy community, have available. Knowing their strengths and weaknesses helps people make informed choices.
GIF is a picture format. It may contain multiple frames or it may not but it is a perfectly standard pallet based image format that has been around for 37 years (for comparison its older than zip or PDF). This is not the same as linking to a 1 second YouTube video.
My current client (Boost) is also treating it as unzoomable, but that is clearly a defect in my client. Even if it was an animation I would want to be able to zoom. Its something to raise with the developer.
In the meantime I just opened the link in my browser:

Yeah, I'm not so sure it's your Lemmy client that's causing your downvotes.
