Re: [che-dev] Animated gifs in bug reports

[Ilya Buziuk <ibuziuk@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I also like animated gifs. 

Could you please clarify what is the particular issue with attaching small gifs apart from the fact that those can not be "stopped" by default without extension?

videos are harder to produce and GH does not support video attachments - https://help.github.com/en/github/managing-your-work-on-github/file-attachments-on-issues-and-pull-requests

which means one would need to host the video somewhere and share a link to it.

Personally, I like animated gifs when time is under < 30s.

Also there are tons of browser extensions to make them pause/skip/move fast if you need this feature.

Hi folks,

just wanted to raise an issue with using animated gifs in bug reports.
Please don't! There is no easy way to stop the animation (or skip parts
of it), so seeing something that goes wrong or extracting important info
can be tedious.

So please use "real" video.

If you see a problem with this, I'm more than happy to discuss any issues.

PS: if you want to be real nice with folks having to analyze issues,
please repeat any relevant information (url's, paths, etc.) in text, so
it can be copied. And always give a precise description of what you are
showing with the video. It might be obvious to you, but not a person
reading the issue.
