GIF files are a popular image format on the internet and are a common format used in the distribution of internet memes. GIF files have been around since the dawn of the internet and were designed to offer high-resolution image capabilities within a small file size.

Due to their ability to be used as an animation format, GIF files have become particularly popular as the format of choice for distributing internet memes. Their lack of full 24-bit color support has, however, seen the PNG format used in preference to GIF for many applications.

Uses

GIF files are particularly useful for storing animation sequences, and this is one of the main reasons for the format's popularity. In the early days of the internet, the use of GIF files to store photographic images and other web assets declined in favor of more modern formats such as JPG and PNG.

AVIF files are a re-imagination of the popular lossy compression image formats such as JPEG and aim to offer better compression ratios while delivering higher-quality results. Compared to the JPEG format, the AVIF format is still relatively new and has yet to gain widespread support among image viewing and editing applications.

With that said, support for AVIF files is growing and is now supported by the majority of web browsers, with support added in recently released versions.

Uses

Due to their high compression capabilities and support for transparency channels, AVIF files are becoming a popular alternative to both JPEG and PNG files, which makes them a perfect format for web based images and other similar applications.
