      You could do that and some websites use mp4s instead of gifs. I believe imgur calls their peudo gifs “gifv” which is actually an mp4 (or maybe webm/p) with a bit of trickery.

      The problem with using mp4s is that they don’t normally loop like you would expect a gif to do.

      They also get a playback bar and such by default, many browsers also block auto playback of videos.
