What part of this project led you to believe it would produce "h264 encoded webm videos"?

Probably the part where it's 2020, not 1995.

This is a GIF maker, so it creates GIFs from videos and nothing more. Due to the fact that GIFs are over 30 years old, it should not be compared to today's technology, specially video encoding which is very different from a soundless looping image. Having said that, I'm all for something new that will replace a GIF with more modern approach and millions of colors.

Considering most sites that let users upload gifs convert them into looping soundless videos, I'd say they're "very different" insofar as they're very inferior.
