          Hey there, to embed a GIF into a comment like this, write your code like this:

          ![](https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tenor.com%2FIBQE1UP052MAAAAM%2Farrested-development-dozens-of-us.gif)

          In other words, with other GIFs you would replace the URL for this image with whatever image you’re using:

          ![](https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.the-url-for.my%2Fanimated.gif)

            Thank you for sharing! I’m on Mlem (iOS client for lemmy) so I can’t quite see it properly but I’ll check it on web version when I can. Always appreciate a chance to learn :) /gen

      Yep. My most up voted comment here has 101 updoots. I had a few on reddit before the algorithm changes that had a couple to a few thousand updoots.
