Hello everyone. I have a small question: I would like to add GIFs to the presentations of my games on Itch, in the HTML text. But where should I host these GIFs? Where do you host yours? Are there any interesting free sites?

Twitter, Imgur (or one of its nsfw alternatives: )
Also, you can put them within Itch.io (3mb) if it's a cover or thumbnail/screenshots and use the link to put them elsewhere.

For what it is worth, I've also heard of as another suitable option. But there of GIFs being hosted on there being "grainy" in quality. So, be cautious about that and take that into consideration if anything.
