   Interesting #Mastodon #Bug: GIF previews do not respect the image preview setting. As in, a "tall" GIF that has a preview set to display the top part still ends up with a preview centered.

     @deshipu image preview setting is a thing. It allows you to add an alt caption, and center the preview on a particular part of the image, if the aspect ratio does not match the aspect ratio of in-timeline image previews on Mastodon.

     @rysiek Do you know in which version that was added to the gif format, or have a link to the specification?

     @rysiek Excuse me, gif preview setting? Is that a thing now?

     @clacke OTOH it would totally make sense to save that in the gif metadata.
