The "GIF" is a video. You are watching a bunch of advertising videos. 115 MB isn't really very much in that regard.

- tambourine_man 2y agoNo, it's a GIF, in the file format sense. Se for yourself: https://about.fb.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/01_Why-AR-Glasses_Carousel-01.gif https://about.fb.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/01_Why-AR-Gl... They have since optimized it and it now weights 23.5MB. Yey. I just converted it to MP4 and it's 1.7MB. Hire me Meta, I can make your videos load 10X faster with a single ffmpeg command.
- thehappypm 2y agoIs mp4 a drop-in replacement in practice for gif?
- tambourine_man 2y agoIn most cases, yes. But even when it's not, I'd be hard pressed to justify 10X the size while having worse fps, colors, battery life, etc.
