What does it look like if I upload a short MP4 with no sound? Does Mastodon think it's a "GIF"? Will it loop..?

From the October 2025 Newsletter. A fly-around the "Glory to the Conquerors of Space" monument set. Similar to a shot in the episode now, but not identical. Not sure we ultimately did this set justice.
