I just started using Lemmy and not sure where to ask this. From my short time, I noticed no videos, gifs, or photo album posts. Are they not supported yet on Lemmy?

    One of the “editing” icons under the post/comment window will allow you to upload images directly to Lemmy. I suspect it would accept a GIF, but I haven’t tried that. It does not currently support videos directly, but they can be done by linking to another source, as was already said.

      It does support GIFs, converts them to MP4 after they’re uploaded on the server.
