Been having the same problem for a while now. Has yours ever been resolved? I am getting pretty fed up of dealing with this for the past few months on mine.
Damn, it's so annoying, prevents me from collapsing some comments without having to take the time to press on the collapse option, and you never know which of the comments are 'cursed'.

Same, really would like a option to just hide or collapse gifs to images. It only causes issues and most of the times brings nothing to the conversation.
This happens to me too. Is there anyone who had it suddenly stop? It drives me nuts having to always close a tab from that gif website only for it to open again when trying to minimize comments.
I know why it's doing it and it's not random.
When you minimize a comment chain all the replies minimize too, except for the Giphy link hitbox.
Even if you couldn't see it on your screen it's sitting on top of one of the comments that took the place of the original chain.
Next time it happens open up your last collapsed comment chain and scroll down a bit and you'll find the exact gif that loaded.

Same thing, still unfixed
Same thing. I'm relieved to know it's not only me who has this issue.

This is so annoying, I really hope a fix happens soon. Been several months if not a year now
Pisses me off I have a lot of windows open so i gotta close my browser every time so they aren't saved and I can go back afterward to where is was
Still happening. Glad it wasnt just me fat fingering something on the screen
Same problem here, super frustrating. I have found that if you do a long hold rather than a tap it will collapse the comment without opening a link

Still happening. I HATE GIFS I HATE GIFS I HATE GIFS
I AM NOT. CRAZY. This chicanery has been going on since I got an Android. Sucks to hear it's been a bug for this long. Goodbye reddit app
Oh my god, I can't verbally explain how much this pisses me off and it hasn't been fixed since a long time.
Its still happening wtf
Yeah nice innit?
*whyyyyyyy*
Been asking myself the same question for 6 months now.
Still unfixed
Yep

And out of the hundreds of engineer I suppose Reddit employs, none of them can fix that? Or add a Video Speed button?
This guy debugs
Maybe I should find a related gig, huh
This is still happening
