You’re young. Young enough to have to google my username meaning. Maybe also google what GIF means: Graphics Interchange Format. Long tima go you could find images on the internet, and they were always GIF, because JPG didn’t exist.
But yes, it’s quite strange nowadays, I agree <grin>
Oh, yes, I used the net before smileys were a thing :-)
That’s… a great question. What’s the purpose of a gif with only one frame?
The same purpose as a PNG or JPEG?
You know that GIF is not specifically a format for animations, right? It’s just a lossless image format.
Yeah, but it’s almost always used for animations. Seeing one that’s not animated just feels… weird.
Now, that’s just a recent development. 20 years ago it was a common format for images on the interwebs.
