Oh it’s not complicated, my way is just overcomplicated “for fun”. You just make a post like an image, but use a link to a .gif or .webp file (though webps don’t work entirely right on Sync). You have to have it hosted on an external site though (any file/image sharing site like imgflip/imgur/catbox.moe) since uploading directly to a lemmy server makes it not animate. Sorry if that doesn’t make sense haha, I’m not sure if I explained it well

Ah, I think my problem is that I was downloading and trying to post to Lemmy directly.
Testing…
Oh if you want to put a gif in comments you have to put an exclamation mark before the link, like this: ! [label] (url)
Ahhh! It worked! Thank you!
