Commands

Add any of these commands to the end of the mention (e.g. u/gifendore freeze)

  • help: see a help message.
  • x: replace x with any number to go back x seconds in the gif.
  • x-y: replace x and y with any numbers to get a smaller section of the gif.
  • reverse: get the gif in reverse.
  • slowmo: get the gif in slow motion.
  • freeze: freeze the end of a gif.
  • Press edit to edit its original message (Can only be done by the OP).
  • Press delete to remove the bot's message (Can only be done by the OP).

Subreddit Moderators

  • If you add the bot as a mod to your subreddit, it will automatically comment and sticky itself on every post.
  • Please let me know if you would like to use the bot on your subreddit.
  • The bot will automatically delete its comment if it is either downvoted too much or the post is removed.

Limitations

  • Currently supported sites
    • reddit direct uploads
    • imgur
    • gfycat
    • streamable
    • any direct link to a .gif or .mp4
    • NEW The bot can grab a high resolution thumbnail of youtube videos
  • The bot doesn't work in anti-bot subs. If you summon the bot and it doesn't reply, it will crosspost to r/gifendore and attempt to pm you. Otherwise, simply crosspost to r/gifendore and it will automatically reply.

FAQ

Q: Where is the bot hosted?

A: It is hosted on Heroku with code on Github.

A: Just add X to the end of the mention (e.g. u/gifendore X)

Notes

  • If you run into any issues with the bot, please let me know here by sending a link to the post that causes the error.

  • If you find any subs where the bot doesn't reply back (because it's more than likely banned) please let me know.

  • u/gifendore_testing only works for mods so there's no point in trying.
