redgifs was spun out of Gfycat (with a new owner too), so I assume that the same player is being used at https://gfycat.com/ https://gfycat.com/ (or rather the other way around), but can't verify right now as I'm in a working environment.
- forgotmypw17 5y agoYou're right, I knew it looked familiar. However, Gfycat features many anti-patterns, such as heavy layout, inaccessible scrolling and cookie notification overlay, while RT omits these.
- giantrobot 5y agoPorn sites have an impetus to serve content quickly because the content itself is often an advertisement for some other paid service. So even with some small number of conversions they make some money. Gfycat et all aren't lead-ins to paid services so they're going to festoon pages with low paying ads. The porn content is also usually more fungible than a meme gif. A particular gif of a cat or something is what people are after vs the porn where it's anything that turns them on.
