Unfortunately, it had no animation support, and the other format meant for it, MNG, never caught on. Either way, people used .PNGs exclusively for normal images, and non-animated .GIFs would be deprecated.
I MUST DISCOVER ITS SECRETS!
Edit: So Mozilla Firefox has APNG support. And APNGs are a thing. Literally animated PNGs.
Holy crap this is amazing.
Does yours support APNGs?
If it says it does, yours does, since this is an APNG with two frames, according to Mozilla.
No this is not an april fools joke.
We have... Animated... Freaking... PNGs... With partial transparency!
*Deep breathing*
Only Mozilla supports it by default because they made it, and it was fully made for backwards compatibility rather than data sanity.
However, Chome does have an extension to emulate it... which stopped working in the latest updates due to a feature being removed.
