That's... a great question. What's the purpose of a gif with only one frame?

[–] netizen@programming.dev 1 points 4 months ago

You're young. Young enough to have to google my username meaning. Maybe also google what GIF means: Graphics Interchange Format. Long tima go you could find images on the internet, and they were always GIF, because JPG didn't exist.

But yes, it's quite strange nowadays, I agree Oh, yes, I used the net before smileys were a thing :-)

The same purpose as a PNG or JPEG?

You know that GIF is not specifically a format for animations, right? It’s just a lossless image format.

[–] Gestrid@lemmy.ca 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, but it's almost always used for animations. Seeing one that's not animated just feels... weird.

[–] BorgDrone@lemmy.one 1 points 4 months ago

Now, that’s just a recent development. 20 years ago it was a common format for images on the interwebs.
