I'm surprised Google doesn't animate GIFs when searching for images of Jeff Goldblum:

h/t Lifehacker's @lordravenscraft for this find

@rrhoover Seems like they, uhhhh, found a way. This is nice for me, since I've turned to a lot of custom .gif search sites to fill this gap, but its nice to be able to turn to just a google search.

I'm confused as to what this does. Does it make every image search a search for animated gifs, to save you the extra click? Do you activate that somehow, or is all-gifs-all-the-time? I assume Google only animates expanded gifs for accessibility reasons (slow connections, browser stability/memory usage). Makes sense for this to be an extension though

@staringispolite It animates GIFs in all Google Images search results (regardless of if you've filtered to animated).

@danlev @staringispolite Oh I see. So it doesn't change the search at all, BUT if your results contain gifs, those gifs will animate without expanding.

This is great. I found it two days ago, and helps my to save a lot of time, as I use to find a lot of GIFs for social media accounts. Great work, thanks a lot!

This changes everything! I'm so happy they finally implemented this 😀 Edit: Apparently I didn't quite understand when posting my comment... Thanks @airi0926
