For #TilingTuesday I'm testing out how videos really work on Mastodon (which I'd literally never tried before).
For example I'm not seeing any controls to make this "repeat indefinitely". How do folks do those infinitely animated little things I keep seeing?
(EDIT: apparently uploading an MP4 without sound converts it to a gif under the hood somewhere and then loops all by itself. Learning something today...)
