Very nice! I know you want to show off the buttery smoothness of your animations, but do you really need to dump >200MBs of gifs on that single page? Holy laptop fan smoke!
Do NOT open this page on mobile. It just consumed all my data plan

I can't change it but if a mod can, I'd be more than willing to accept that change
The really quick fix is just to replace the images with links to the images. Anything fancier (like replacing them with static images and links to actual videos rather than GIFs) can come later.
Please. I’m not trying to be mean in any way, but words are failing me at just how bad this is. You just don’t do this sort of thing. Entirely genuinely, you have probably directly cost at least a dozen people a few dollars with these GIFs, and measurably (sometimes seriously) inconvenienced dozens more for up to a month due to limits reached or approached.

#39FYI you can use ffmpeg to encode gif as h264/h265 mp4 videos of varying quality or convert to webm which can be played from an img tag, all of which will be orders of magnitude smaller. Simplest form: ffmpeg -i foo.gif -c:v libx264 -crf 22 foo.mp4 You can vary crf to change the size to quality trade-off.

#40I applaud the attention to detail: many of these things are obvious but finding the time and actually implementing it!
