I don't use facebook, so I can't say for sure, but the issue might be caused by: 1) You're viewing not actual gifs, but video files and 2) In firefox it's possible to disallow autoplaying of videos. You can check it by clicking right mouse button on one and there should be menu entries like "play", "pause" or "show controls".

An actual GIF (with all the bad picture quality): https://media.tenor.com/images/5c7712f7efa2c28f255c8ea581d1ff20/tenor.gif What giphy.com (also tenor) tries to sell as GIF but isn't: https://i.giphy.com/media/l3V0H7bYv5Ml5TOfu/200w.webp What facebook tries to sell as GIF but it's all just goddamn lies: (literally anything the put a "(GIF)" circle over is MP4, unless it's a file directly linked from giphy.com, in which case it's WEBP. Firefox Inspector (F12) to the rescue.)

Thanks for the hint, probably the Chrome engine doesn't care about the different format (gif/webp) and displays the picture independently.

Probably everybody here uses the packman versions :-) You just found another use case. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
