I’m a bitter old man who dislikes inline gifs in the comments

I’ve waffled on this issue over the last 25 years, but agree that the option to show/block should still exist.

First I was against it.

• Mostly because it was change - cluttering my once pristine BBSs

Then I enjoyed it.

• Because it added some liveliness to the threads I read, and because I was in a smaller collective of folks that knew how to do it without being annoying.

Then I was against it again.

• Because the forums/boards because overstuffed with people shitposting ONLY animated gifs.
