Hello Itch Support team! is this issue fixed yet? it's been going on for more than a month now and from my profile i don't see any changes to the gif issues :((( 

i've been unable to fix the gifs in my old pages or upload new pages because of this issue and it does not seem to be getting fixed anytime soon, could you give us an update on this? 

Same here. Trying to upload gifs for an upcoming release and it's not working whatsoever

i also got the same issue when using gif in my game page.

Any updates on this? .gifs are single handedly the Top 1 factor for conversions exactly because they show how the game plays. Without animated GIFs conversions drop a lot.

This should be an urgent issue to be fixed.

Same issue here for new projects.

it's been a week, need to keep the thread fresh ✌

Any ideas of how we could organize in order that itch see that's a MAJOR issues for all of us ?

I put a message on Itch.io discord, in case it's most seen overthere.
You can put an emoji on the message to significate you're concern about it, maybe it'll help with visibility.

I'm experiencing the exact same issue. The animated background I uploaded for my game seems to have dropped all but the first frame after uploading :/

Gotta Keep the thread fresh and at the top of the page! 

This is also affecting profile pages.

All of the images on the right side of the page are gifs that are not animating unless you click on them. However, the single gif embedded in the game description IS auto playing: https://balloonco-gd-617017.itch.io/the-balloon-co-gamevertisement-museum
