The one where I get tired of existing GIF optimizers and make my own

High quality, low filesize GIFs

While the GIF format is a little on the older side, it’s still a really handy format in 2025 for sharing short clips where an actual video file might have some compatibility issues. For instance, I find when you just want a short little video on your website, a GIF is still so handy versus a video, where some browsers will refuse to autoplay them, or seem like they’ll autoplay them fine until Low Battery Mode is activated, etc. With GIFs it’s just… easy, and sometimes easy is nice. They’re super handy for showing a screen recording of a cool feature in your app, for instance.

Tip: If you use DuckDuckGo as your default search engine, you'll like "bangs", which are short codes starting with ! that you insert in the search. It'll redirect to search somewhere else instead of DDG.

Right in Safari’s search bar you can add

!a – to search Amazon
!g – to search Google instead just this once
!amaps – to search Apple Maps
!qr – to create a QR Code from the search text
!w – to search Wikipedia

and MANY more. Thousands of possibilities. Try some.
