Hey guys!!
Sure as shit haven’t figured this baby out yet, but here I am lol!!
I don’t even know how to gif or if I can swear. 😂
@Jojofromjerz
You gif by uploading your gif or simply pasting it in the post.
As to whether you can swear, that's up to the admins in your particular neck of the woods (mastodon server). Though, I can safely assume that you can, although some folk would appreciate some advance warning of the potty-mouth avalanche using the odd CW content warning which doubles as a subject line for posts.
Otherwise, it's all the same.

paste to a post.. servers are overwhelmed and uploaded takes up valuable space and bandwidth.. pre the server owners...

@tdwllms1 @Jojofromjerz

Might be a server/instance/neck of the woods thing.
I'm on mastodon.coffee and haven't experienced any of that.

@metrogn0me_gr @tdwllms1 @Jojofromjerz Coffee? How do you find these other servers? I'm confused.
@Shari2112 @tdwllms1 @Jojofromjerz
For me, it was a case that the ".social" was overloading/not accepting people and then it was a case of "try one of those" and I picked one at random.
That was before I became familiar with the peculiarities of each server.
It's fine here and have no reason to move to anywhere else...
