the one that says "lento, pero avanzo."? it doesnt move for me :p
No, but it would if it were an animated gif.
ohhh I think that doesnt work either, it's also broken there and in comments and stuff :< I showed that on a different comment on this post
Ok look at my profile again. I couldn't use your file because, as you pointed out, it's been converted to a webm, which doesn't give you as much options. For example, if you try to reconvert the webm to gif, it will lose its transparency (because of some complicated reasons I can't explain since I'm not a graphics expert).
So I went and found a gif just to use as an example. You can upload your gif to imgbb.com and then get the direct image link. Then use the ![] (image-link-here.gif)
markdown without the space I added between the brackets and parentheses. That should make the gif immediately visible when someone visits your profile (although it wouldn't be "the banner" per se).
One thing to note is that if you're using Jerboa, gifs never start autoplaying, so they have to be clicked. Afaik there's no way around that yet, but you could put in a feature request. I actually had a request once to be able to zoom images more due to my bad eyesight, and the devs came through, so they do take requests seriously.
BTW I'm only going to leave that gif on my profile until you have a chance to look, so please let me know once you've seen it. The reason being I'm actually a cis man, and it wouldn't be right for me to pretend to be something else. I just grabbed that as an example.
Oh yup it works for me exactly like u said! but yeh I cant do that on my banner :< So yeah I guess the problem is that for some reason gifs r converted to webm in a way that breaks them
hehe no problem X3 I think its fine as a supportive meme :3
Looks like one of the admins is going to look into it for you, so if they're able to make the banner animated, then that will be great! If it's a Jerboa thing, then I could post a request, but it looks like people with other apps are having problems as well, so seems more like a Lemmy or instance level thing. I'll be looking forward to seeing if they can get it working, and then maybe I'll switch my banner to an animated gif as well.
You know what? You're right! I'll leave it up. I've never been too terribly attached to my gender in the first place :P
Yeah I hope the admins can figure it out, tyvm for the help! :3
Hell yeah! :D
Hold on, I'm gonna try something
