Description dev 2016-03-29 01:24:49 UTC 
GIFs in description do not render in Akregator. They had worked up until about a month or two ago (I cannot find a working old version that I can use without downgrading a large number of dependencies.) Also, HTML5 videos do not seem to work either. (They never worked that I remember, however I believe webkit should support it.)

It works fine with 5.2
I don't know why it doesn't work with 5.1.3 (it uses khtml) so perhaps a khtml bug
(in 5.2 it uses QtWebKit)
