While on the subject of gifs, I'd like to recommend ScreenToGif. As the name suggests it supports screen recording, but the editor is nice for other gifs as well. It's easy to remove duplicate frames, change timing for all or some frames, etc. It can use ffmpeg and gifski for the gif encoding.

Also, I just learnt this, gifski has integrated gifsicle for lossy gif compression.

- c-linkage 2y agoAs others have mentioned below, a lot of sites and applications don't support embedded video, so GIF is the only way to go. I love using ScreenToGif to embed little videos into my email responses when I'm doing technical support. It's so much easier to show someone the process than describe everything in click by click detail. I've been doing this for years, and people are always amazed at the videos.
- underlines 2y agoI use it for Documentation (when interactive), for Teams with integrated short clips, for Powerpoint Presentations when I'm doing a live demo (having a second slide with the gif as a backup, when the live demo doesn't work). The editor is minimal and has a non existent learning curve. AFAIK screentogif even has the gifsky encoder plus a few others.
- itslennysfault 2y agoAfter clicking your link I had instant nostalgia. I used this tool years ago and completely forgot about it. I went to download it, but it appears to be windows only which explains why I stopped using it as I haven't used windows in about a decade. That said, I'd highly recommend Giphy Capture for recording gifs on mac. It has a very sleek/light UI.
