GIFs are moving to Discourse core!

I’m not sure the attribution requirements were actually read even. The mark is only 1 attribution and it’s optional

I think the theme component only had the powered by Klipy (from this list) but we probably should have been more careful with checking against the official website when porting to core — added the main required one in UX: add placeholder text for Klipy gifs search - Pull Request #41651 - discourse/discourse - GitHub

Thanks, @davidb can you please remove this option?

Done — added in UX: remove gifs from popular theme components - Pull Request #41649 - discourse/discourse - GitHub

We will definitely think of a way to make this less confusing and surprising, I’ve asked David B to open up an internal topic and I will work on it sometime in the near future.

We’ve updated the logic around how this warning appears. Should now be resolved in DEV: add upcoming change permanent banner metadata - Pull Request #41700 - discourse/discourse - GitHub

These issues should now be resolved for sites running the latest version of Discourse.
