I have been creating them from scratch using the video editor Kdenlive.
The bouncy text is unfortunately a very manual process. Instead of simply creating a keyframe at the endpoint, where I want the word to end up, I create a couple additional keyframes several frames before the final endpoint keyframe. The first keyframe moves the text about 100px past the endpoint, then the next keyframe about 50px before the endpoint, then the final keyframe at the endpoint itself. This makes the text sort of “overshoot” and “overcorrect” as it approaches the endpoint, giving the bouncy illusion.
That is a bit of a high-level oversimplification, but I plan on eventually writing up a more in-depth tutorial on my technique.
No suggestions at the moment but I am thinking about updating the community icon and banner. Probably will throw up a post soon-ish asking for suggestmissions from the community, so feel free to chime in

Oh wow I didn’t realize it was that involved. That’s way over my head, so I’ll just have to appreciate what you come up with
I have a bunch more in my list to make next. Feel free to suggest anything to add!
