Recommendations

Usable, but reduce FPS or width if the file must be shared in chat.
Settings are balanced for a short, shareable GIF.

Before converting

Keep the clip under 6 seconds when possible.
Use 10-15 FPS for most GIFs.
Use 320-640 px width depending on where it will be shared.
Preview the first and last frame so the loop feels intentional.
