gronka
gronka is a free, open-source discord bot that downloads videos and images from social media and converts them to gifs — right inside your server. no ads to click through, no reposting to sketchy sites: paste a link or drop a file and get it back in the channel.
what it does
/download— grab a video or image from 20+ platforms: twitter/x, tiktok, instagram, youtube, reddit, twitch, imgur, and more/convert— turn any video or image into a gif, with trimming and quality presets/optimize— compress an existing gif to shrink its file size
you can also right-click any message and use the context menu. every download source can be turned on or off individually from the built-in web dashboard.
