 I took your advice and built a gif nostr companion app:
https://gifbuddy.lol/

You can download the PWA to your home screen, search for your gif, copy the address and paste it into your client

On the back end, for every gif that gets copied/clicked, an API request is made to upload to  nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7 by  nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w

From there a nip94 request is done so that the content can be accessed by any client in the future

Now, anyone who searches for gifs using this tool is also helping to build the gif repository for nip94 and adding fallback urls to nostr.build

And all they did was click to copy #gifs
