Incredibly useful free and open-source app to convert videos into high-quality GIFs https://alternativeto.net/software/gifski/about/

@alternativeto A screenshot of the Gifski app page displays a video editing interface featuring a colorful unicorn and rainbow GIF preview. Below the interface, the text "Gifski" appears, followed by "Free" and "Open Source (MIT)" labels. The description states: "Convert videos into high-quality animated GIFs on macOS with advanced encoding, cross-frame palettes, temporal dithering, and extensive color support." Additional labels include "Animated GIF Creator", "Mac", and "Norway", with "Alternative to ezgif.com and Gifox" at the bottom.

@alternativeto I will always shell out for gifski until the end of GIF as a format. The outputs are actually usable, and it's really the only thing that can create GIFs small enough to reliably send! It also gives a lot of internal GIF settings like the loop count, which I've used a lot to make interesting effects.
