@bvarner-ebi pointed me to this awesome workflow:

1. Install https://www.cockos.com/licecap/
2. Open it (you may have to give it some access to your screen in your security settings)
3. Select a part of the screen you want to record
4. Hit "Record" and safe as gif
5. Record a short, 3-5 second screencap
6. (Note, you can easily edit the screencap in MacOS preview by deleting pictures)
7. Drag and drop it into your GitHub issue.
8. Voila you get awesome things like

Anyone willing to make a nice howto page in obook would be great!

Cool, but seems it plays only once. On Chrome I can get it to replay if I refresh, on Safari not even that. It's just stuck on the last frame. Any way to make it loop?

I noticed that too! This ticket seems related: https://github.com/justinfrankel/licecap/issues/15

Maybe there is an option in the tool?

Test for infinite repeat.

If you can see the gif above looping, then it is likely a user setting in the application. After pressing "Record..." in the application, check that the .GIF repeat count is set to "0".

It is looping for me (I'm using Chrome on Mac).

This is very cool, and could be very useful for documentation about UIs!
