GIF Search sticker bot
In short
More a piece of Telegram itself than a separate service. We use it every day and rarely remember it is a bot at all.
About the bot
Surprise: the animations you find in Telegram come from an ordinary bot. When you open the GIF tab and type a word, this is what runs behind the scenes. You can also call it by hand, with its name, a space and a query.
Results show up as a strip above the keyboard. Scroll, tap the one you like, and it goes out with a small note saying which bot sent it. English queries return far more, other languages work too but miss the mood of the joke more often. You can refine the query as you type, and the strip refreshes right away.
Opening a private conversation with the bot is nearly useless, it will only explain how to use it. All the value sits in inline mode: groups, comments under posts, replies.
The downsides are those of any search over someone else's library. You will not find a GIF for your friends' inside joke, moderation is out of your hands, and favourites are still easier to keep in your saved list. The good news: there is nothing to install or configure.
