Today we release Discourse 2.7, building on Discourse 2.6 from last November. For post 2.0 releases we’ve chosen a new set of codenames based on the history of human communication; this release is Strowger and represents the invention of the telephone.
This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://blog.discourse.org/2021/05/discourse-2-7-released

Wow! We’ve achieved so much with this release. Nice work, everyone! ![:sparkles: :sparkles:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/sparkles.png?v=9)
I am excited about all the new features, but my favorite by far is the ability to pause gifs. Now if only it were possible to pause my cat.

Is that simply just used as a fallback? I thought Discourse uses the Web Share API.
