It seems like all the animations in this article are GIFs, not actual animated SVGs :(

I wonder why he chose to export them as GIFs after going through all the work to create SVGs. They also seem to be pretty choppy as a result. Maybe whatever CMS the article is using doesn't support SVGs?

I converted them to GIF for portability (and because CB asked for that format).

Yes GIF is horrible but it's a necessary evil in this current social media climate.
