When not to convert AVIF to GIF
- Skip GIF for the smallest share: lossless output stays large, so prefer a lossy target when sending AVIF files.
- Keep a master copy: repeated exports stack small losses, so archive AVIF before batch GIF shares.
Limits
Starting point: AVIF - AV1-encoded stills at very small sizes. Older viewers may not open it; keep a JPEG or PNG copy for sharing. Limited to 256 colors per frame, so gradients may band. Export GIF from AVIF at matched dimensions; every pixel maps across, so large sources stay large.
