Reddit Image Downloader v2.2.0
What's New
- Added support for
old.reddit.com - GIFs from both single media posts and galleries can now be downloaded as
.mp4
Why MP4?
Reddit GIFs are actually video files internally, but are often delivered in extremely bloated GIF format.
The downloader now saves them as .mp4, resulting in:
- dramatically smaller file sizes
- faster downloads
- better playback compatibility
Typical reduction:
roughly 15x–20x smaller compared to the original GIF file size.
This especially helps when downloading large galleries or multiple animated posts.
