🔁 Convert GIF to AVIF
About these formats
About GIF. GIF is an old format limited to 256 colours per frame, best known for short animations. For static photos almost any modern format will look better and weigh less.
About AVIF. AVIF is one of the most efficient image formats, often noticeably smaller than WebP or JPG at the same visual quality, with transparency support. Support is good in current browsers but not yet universal across older devices and apps.
Going from GIF (indexed raster) to AVIF (lossy or lossless raster) usually produces a smaller file at the same visual quality, which helps pages load faster.
When to keep the original instead. There is no quality penalty to worry about here, but it is still wise to keep the original GIF as a master copy.
