   its hilarious how discord just CANNOT handle small gifs
   
   like, it desperately wants to compress them except none of the algorithms work at a 128x128 scale so the image just gets stuck loading

     @coolbean now that i think about it akkoma has a server side option to use exiftool to strip metadata i think it would be cool if that was something users could turn off

     @rat literally, its especially bad with gifs because gif's featureset is actually so weird (fun fact: they support storing layer data if you dont use animation, also discord's implementation is bad and cant handle layer data and strips everything but layer 0)

     @rat @coolbean That's a question the setup script asks you, if you want to enable it or not, maybe have a look around prod.secret.exs as it might've just dumped some option there that you can remove

     Unless the akkoma dev has it hardcoded to be enabled permanently you can just have a look at a config file and probably just comment out a line. Ill have to look at my own config later and let you know. But it should be possible to just disable

     @kirby @coolbean i mean like, so a user on my site can go into their settings and disable it for themselves only, like it will only strip metadata for people that have it enabled

     @rat @coolbean hm, that's an odd feature. I don't think anybody has ever thought of that use case before. Only thing I can think of to say here is fork akkoma I guess.

     @kirby @coolbean id need to look at what akkoma actually removes, if its just gps data then i dont really care that much but if it also strips a lot of stuff like id3 tags that might be annoying

     @coolbean @kirby looks like admins can set all the stuff it purges and preserves actually

     @coolbean @kirby the default options in the admin fe have 2 purge options, all metadata and then just stuff in the ifd0 group, both of which purge stuff like id3 tags, the only defaults for preserve are orientation and colorspaces, so most instances will probably have it set to strip a lot of shit

     @rat @coolbean The only way around this is to zip the file or something first, which is stupid & ruins sharing gifs & pictures.
