Hello.

Thanks for the awesome software!

One issue I'm having is that looped GIFs stop looping after optimization :(

Would be great if you could fix it.

Thanks anyway!

Start by reproducing the issue with a looping GIF and the optimization workflow described in the report. Verify that the optimized output still loops; the issue does not name a source file or test, so locating the GIF optimization entry point and adding regression coverage will require repository investigation.
