Is compressing a GIF free?

Yes, completely free with no file limits beyond the upload size cap.

Will the animation still loop?

Yes, looping is preserved - only frame rate and resolution are reduced to shrink the file.

How much smaller will my GIF be?

It depends on the source - high-fps, large-resolution GIFs typically shrink 50% or more.

GIF compression here works by lowering frame rate and resolution, since GIF's 256-color palette is already limited. Very large or high-fps GIFs shrink the most.
