What is Reddit's opinion of ButtleOFX?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Il y a quoi comment équivalent libre (sur GNU\Linux) ?

J'ai listé natron, buttleofx et snowmix. Natron est le plus prometteur. Il est cross plateform et fait par des français au passage.

Depends on what you plan on designing/doing. Image editing programs like Gimp (free) or Photoshop can also save animated gifs. They usually make use of layers for individual animation frames.

Alternatively, rendering programs like Blender can output gifs, and ffmpeg can convert video files to gifs (I would expect; otherwise there are free programs for that).

/e: Actually, check out http://alternativeto.net/software/adobe-after-effects/

Namely Natron and ButtleOFX, which I will now check out as well.
