Making a GIF from a YouTube video is easier than it might seem.
Loads of online services can turn a YouTube video link into a GIF for you.
Some are super simple but might not keep the video quality top-notch, while others might be more complex.

Also, theres this handy internet tool extension that I find super cool.
GifRun is very fast at processing requests.
Another service like GifRun is Giphy.
Many people recommend the service Gifs, let me give you a heads-up: dont even waste your time.
It takes forever to load, and you might be unable to download your GIF at all.
Another method I like is GIFit.
Its a free web client extension.
With the extension, a GIFit button pops up at the bottom of any YouTube video you watch.
GifRun offers extra parameters like adding text, changing size, and GIF frame rate.
Its perfect if you better make GIFs from YouTube videos often.
The cool part is that it converts videos to GIFs right on YouTube.
The downside is it only works on Google Chrome.
So, it might not be your thing if youre all about Safari.
But thats up to you.
Check your default downloads folder to find it.
Giphy is an online tool that converts YouTube videos to GIFs.
Just like other converters, you paste the YouTube video link and then download your GIF.
The interface is slicker than GifRun, and there are more editing tools.
But it takes longer to process the GIFs, which is a bit of a downside for me.
you’re able to use it like any other GIF file.
