The Summer of enshittification continues apace.
The money ran out, now we have to face cold hard decisions regarding what parts of the internet we are wiling to pay for.
It’s better than ads
I am going to not be able to find obscure gifs i remember from the 2000’s 😩
So what you’re saying is nothing important is being lost.
I mean, if you don’t convey emotions to friend via gifs I don’t know what to tell ya!
I’m gonna take a wild guess and say the reason why gfycat integrated into basically everything was because they launched themselves at the tech giants and gave everything for basically nothing.
I thought it was pretty suss that they suddenly showed up on every platform.
They were purchased by Snapchat last year. So this is probably Snapchat seeing it as only a cost center with no return. Which tbh, it probably is.
I can’t say I knew anything about how they operated to begin with. How did they pay their bills?
Where is DataHoarders representation here on Lemmy?? Anyone know?
!datahoarder@lemmy.ml I believe
I’m glad one of GIF platforms went down. GIF format is disgusting anyway. APNG is superior in every way and should replace ugly GIF garbage format.

The “endless” VC funding is drying up.
Oh no. Anyway…
Yeah since interest rates are high they actually want returns on their investments.
