On a somewhat related topic, I noticed massive amounts of gifs that I would typically discover through Android's keyboard option (hooked up to Giphy I believe) were deleted sometime last year (tons of content, even obscure stuff, related to pop culture and movies, even DBZ abridged stuff). I was not sure if this was done by the website hosting these gifs or the users themselves but it was such a large number across so many genres that I suspected the website scrubbed them for whatever reason (also cannot be found through the main website itself).

Additionally, I've been looking for gif hosting websites and Google does not make one mention of Gfycat anywhere in their search results for keyword "gif websites", and this is after going through the first 5 pages of results, which seems a bit odd to me.

edit: I found Gfycat on the 7th page of Google search results, interesting...
