I like 99% of the changes I've seen here (thank you for all your hard work to improve MDL) except that there are now gifs everywhere. To me it's annoying and distracting to see things that are constantly moving. It's like having a broken lamp in your room that is flickering... except that here, you can't turn the lamp off and change the light bulb. Or... can you?
What I want to suggest is that you make an option to turn off/hide/disable (whatever you call it?) gifs, similar to the way you can chose to see public feeds or friends only. Is this even possible to do? I don't understand these things so I apologize if my suggestion is stupid, but if it possible to do this I think very many people would appreciate it.
I know that lots of people are super happy and excited that we can now have gifs as profile pictures and I suppose you made it possible because many people requested it. I know many people love gifs even though I don't like them. I have also seen many of my friends mention headache, sensory overload and even thinking of leaving MDL. For me personally it's not a huge issue, it's just something that bugs me a little bit. If seeing moving and blinking things was optional we could all be happy! :)
