For example, on my profile picture. Find them on Coolbuddy or some other site and save as a webp.

You can also just download any GIF and convert it into WebP using an online converter like this. Then you can set that converted WebP as your profile picture.

I have been using apps that dont have profile pictures on them, so forgot all about them lol
So cooool
