You think it's good that people keep using gigantic GIF files rather than smaller videos? There's no technical reason to prefer the GIF format — it burns data transfer, requires more CPU, and has terrible quality.

I prefer <img> elements never to animate at all, regardless of format. Animations should use <video>.
