title: Why Facebook does not animate gif, if gif is used as og:img?
body: <p>I have this post: <a href="https://tikex-dev.com/kubl/szkg/j1vd/7w68" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://tikex-dev.com/kubl/szkg/j1vd/7w68</a>
  it has og:img: <a href="https://t44-post-cover.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/v56o" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://t44-post-cover.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/v56o</a></p>
  <p>If you load it in a browser it animates, but not on Facebook, why?</p>
  <p>And I have those headers:</p>
  <pre class="lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;head&gt;
  &lt;meta charset=&quot;utf-8&quot;&gt;
  &lt;meta name=&quot;viewport&quot; content=&quot;width=device-width&quot;&gt;
  &lt;meta property=&quot;og:title&quot; content=&quot;555&quot;&gt;
  &lt;meta property=&quot;og:description&quot; content=&quot;555&quot;&gt;
  &lt;meta property=&quot;og:image&quot; content=&quot;https://t44-post-cover.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/v56o&quot;&gt;
  &lt;meta property=&quot;og:image:width&quot; content=&quot;1920&quot;&gt;
  &lt;meta property=&quot;og:image:height&quot; content=&quot;1080&quot;&gt;
  &lt;meta property=&quot;og:image:type&quot; content=&quot;image/gif&quot;&gt;

  &lt;meta name=&quot;next-head-count&quot; content=&quot;11&quot;&gt;
  &lt;/head&gt;

  <p>Giphy uses mp4 as og:video. Do I really need video to show an animation?
  Tenor uses webm format in og:video.  Is og:video really needed?</p>
