Twitter will now accept large GIFs
The Micro-blogging website Twitter has now increased its animated GIF (graphics interchange format) size limit, which was earlier 5MB will now accept a file of 15MB.
According to a media, it will accept the file of 15 MB, if it would get uploaded from a desktop.
But there is a sad part too that the 5MB photo limit stays the same, with the GIF limit, for mobile uploads on Twitter.
However, the social media platform Twitter will now allow the GIFs three times the size if these are uploaded on the web from a desktop computer.
This update has not made its way to TweetDeck, which had also remained perennially behind the times when it comes to twitter engineering improvements.
