Love this thing! It enabled me to add a “Convert to GIF” for videos in my Clop app (https://lowtechguys.com/clop) in just a few lines of code. The GIF gets encoded at its optimal size by default so I didn’t have to do a second optimization step. I also like that the author spent time to add an easy way to build a static binary, which I need in order to ship gifski inside the app. Compressing all these static binaries so I can ship them in Clop with a <100MB download was not so easy though. I’ve been using the included xz in macOS but I’m switching to lrzip [1] for better compression size and especially speed [1] <a href="https://github.com/ckolivas/lrzip">https://github.com/ckolivas/lrzip</a>.
