When viewing the page on a mobile browser, no image is found, because app.js tries to load a .gif instead of .mp4, and the .gif version doesn't exist. Can it be switched to just display MP4s everywhere? They're often smaller than the GIFs anyway.

great question! when we decided to use gifs instead of mp4s on mobile, it had to do with how certain mobile OSs (namely iOS) prevented autoplaying of videos. Now iOS 10 allows for autoplaying video with some restrictions, so we should switch back to using mp4s on mobile. And the smaller file size of mp4 files is definitely a better experience for mobile :)
