#2I've used the GUI version before (Mac App) and it's my favorite, favorite little tool for quickly whipping up GIF's. I'm a big fan

Same. It annoys me that I can’t easily place a video in a Google Doc so converting to GIF is my usual go-to. Gifski has been great for that.

#4While Gifski is fantastic, I'd really like to know what kind of tech https://gifs.com uses. Their GIFs are really high quality and small in size.
I thought they were using Gifski but I'm not sure about it.

#5I've tried an absurd amount of video-to-gif tools and Gifski somehow is orders of magnitude better quality than all of them

#6I've used this for years and it's the best out there. Definitely use it for converting videos for Google Slides and such.
But it's such a travesty that we're in 2024 and still using GIFs in place of videos. I guess it's not necessary on the web directly anymore, but so many other platforms, like Google, support GIFs but not videos. So we're all stuck encoding into an insanely space/cpu inefficient format just to get something animating.

Are they actually GIFs? Some websites use looping videos and call them GIFs, even though they’re H.264 in MP4 or something like that.

Creating GIFs for Google Slides is also exactly my main usecase for gifski. Today I played around with different formats for animated images (GIFs, apng, svg) and videos (webm, mp4, ...) in Google Slides. Only GIFs can be directly embedded. Other animated images are not supported, and videos have to be files in Google Drive.
Ironically, GIFs are way larger than e.g. a webm video but are the only format which can be directly embedded in a presentation.

webm seems to be the modern replacement for GIFs in browsers. I would suspect gifs.com supports them. Somehow their site is buggy for me atm so I could not test it.

They do have an option to download GIFs
