As title. There’s an option in the settings menu to disable animations. However GIF image posts animate in thumbnail view regardless.

      1. Movement is very insistent on grabbing attention. To the extent that I find it difficult to focus and read text when there’s an animation happening nearby. YMMV, we all experience things differently
      2. Yeah NSFW stuff. But in the broader sense - gore, violence, shock imagery. I’m a baby and I don’t want to see that.

        I am so with you on this. I have severe attention deficit paired with hypersensitivity and anything moving and even colorful takes the fun away from all the rest unfortunately. It’s like an itch that I can never scratch. So I would love an option to disable ALL gifs for good.
