Always Gif. It's not "Jraphics Interchange Format" Mr. white.
evilspock
"choosy programmers choose GIF" - a riff on a peanut butter slogan at the time. If you insist on a hard G - you didn't get the meme.

if I wanted to say jif, I'd just say peanutbutter.
StrictlyBull
Wouldn’t it then be a PB&Jpeg?
qweesdy
It's pronounced "Stefan" you heathens!
AcidZebra
I wonder if he is a jhost now.
CrisprCAS
Have some respect! He's not even in his jrave yet!

I always pronoun it Stefen.

This guy's willingness to vacillate between the two pronunciations is respectable.

Two things that people get hung up on that I’ll never understand: how toilet paper is hung, and how to pronounce gif.
Gaelwyn
Because there is a right way and a wrong way.
Is there toilet paper? Do you understand the other person when they say gif? Then…what’s the problem?
arthurvanhoudt
OK the G is from Graphic. So imho that’s the sound. Do we say Jrafic?
He wanted to watch the world burn in a constant loop. It was the gif-t he left with his legacy.

If you create something, you get to name it and decide how it is pronounced. Therefore it is now and always will be Jif. God speed good sir

And? Doesn't matter that language changes. The man invented it and named it. Your personal choice on how to pronounce it doesn't change that
I bet you pronounce IKEA wrong.
I pronounce it the way it is said. The word SCUBA is another acronym whose pronunciation doesn't match up either
MoonMoon89
If he wanted it pronounced JIF then he should have come up with an acronym that spells JIF. But since it is spelled GIF, I'll say GIF.

I always say: if you write one pronunciation like the word itself, and the other differently, then you already said which is correct.
RelartOfGivia
Have you met the English language?
SCUBA
Scuba is pronounced exactly how it’s spelled. Want point are you trying to make?

That the letters that make up SCUBA are not pronounced the same as the words that the letters originate from. Just like GIF
Ok but gif is pronounced like gif (not jif) and scuba is pronounced like scuba (not scuhba).
Except gif is pronounced Jif and SCUBA is pronounced scooba, while Underwater is pronounced UHnder, not OOnder
