About r/BetterEveryLoop
In its own words:
For animated gifs and similar formats, that get better the longer you watch them.
Community guide
r/BetterEveryLoop (#367, about 3.0 million) is for animated gifs (and similar) that improve the longer you watch them. Rules: animated silent gifs only, direct links, descriptive titles, no reposts, no trolling; self posts are meta. Sample tiny (n=3; ppd unavailable).
Silent loops that reward rewatching
Audio tracks and static images miss the point; the gag or detail should deepen across loops.
Linking and titles
Prefer direct links; write a descriptive title; treat text self-posts as meta only.
