This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This was a placeholder image for a .gif I uploaded.

This screenshot was taken on Boost. I tried in a browser and I didn't see the same thing. Not sure who is adding the placeholder.

Interesting, looks like this is the comment:

Looks normal on my home instance using an app to view it.

It is that comment. I'm thinking it might be the first frames of the gif that maybe boost is using as a placeholder. It only happens when I first load the app for a brief second before it starts playing. I have been trying to see if any of the other gifs I posted do the same thing. Haven't been able to scroll down fast enough to see their placeholders though.

Found a different placeholder image. Going to have to open the gif and see if these frames are in there.

I used ezgif.com/split/ to split gif to frames and these images are not in there. Don't know?
