I mean if the mods wanted to save users' data they wouldn't have this news video autoplaying in the corner of my screen right nowYou can already set a GIF as your avatar, it just won't animate in most places*. I think I vaguely remember an argument from a mod that this was on purpose, so that 1) avatars don't become too distracting in threads, and 2) it saves people's data.
* I remember on an older design they wouldn't animate in threads, but would on floating profile windows and maybe on profile pages? Not sure about the current handling, though.
