Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

Hmm ... that's all I can see in Firefox... (its fresh install btw.) I have to check the mobile app if it shows up there. But even in the meme communities I only see GIFs sometimes in the comments but not in the posts

I recently noticed that this is actually a bug that's been fixed four days ago (Github).
Until your instance of Lemmy updates, you'll have to open the post or comment on the original instance using the rainbow button above the comment. GIFs already work on the same site that you post them on.

Ahh that’s strange, I’m posting from safari on iPhone and it loads fine, has a play button though.
