putting a 50x50 pixel headshot non-animated gif (pronounced gif) on your website is a status symbol for boomer academics who want to show they've been hip on the internet since 1993. idk any other usecases in 2020+5

It's a format designed back when computers could only show 256 colors at once, and is very good at compressing some types of image.

It pre-dated PNG and is lossless, unlike JPEG
