I'm no technical genius but this makes it look simple enough to implement.
Q. But who really cares?
This applies to everyone that posts gifs. And it does mean that FAST6191 won't be as mad when I post these huge dial-up killing gifs.

We decided to disallow WebM files with sound for a few reasons, but mainly because it’s our intention to provide the site with better animated images, and not true video support. To that end, we only accept WebM files with one video stream and no audio streams, that are shorter than 120 seconds long, no larger than 2048x2048 pixels, and less than 3 MB in size.
