(When copying from one note location to another.)

@luckman212 do you have any clue about this?

@rnorbauer do you have any examples where copy pasting GIFs works? If Obsidian (or even operating systems) don't support this there's not much I can do.

Until either I have more input from @luckman212 or any examples from @rnorbauer of this working anywhere else, I'll close this one. I don't think it's feasible, and I won't have the time for this for a while, but anyone else is welcome to try.

@NomarCub Sorry for not seeing your above question until now, but copying animated GIFs to the clipboard definitely works, at least on Windows. In fact, it works when copying an animated GIF into Obsidian itself (for example, via the clipboard from Firefox's "Copy image" context menu).
