{{Ph-I-B}} | {{Ph-I-B}}GIF sharing has been a free service for users on mobile, PC and Mac alike since platforms started rolling them out<ref>{{Cite web |last=Chowdhry |first=Amit |date=2015-06-01 |title=Facebook Starts Supporting Animated GIFs |url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/amitchowdhry/2015/06/01/facebook-starts-supporting-animated-gifs}}</ref>. However, services need to exist to deliver the GIFs' content to a target browser/platform, which means that companies may foot the bill for this "free user service." In certain situations, API calls can be free up to a certain amount/hour, and this is the case with GIPHY and Tenor [Tenor may not require pricing at all]. | ||
