Description
Combining all these gifs without destroying the color depth or frame optimization was a surprisingly difficult task. Wouldn’t have taken three hours if Gimp’s gif encoder (or whatever libraries it uses) didn’t index the colors on the exported gif thus forcing me to export the frames as individual images and reconstruct the 205 frame gif with varying frame delays in a separate program.
I’m going to continue whingeing about this utter irrelevance elsewhere, enjoy your horses and whatnot.

Can I go somewhere, and pay money to buy that mug?
I see! That’s good to know, thanks!
It’s a shame that GIMP doesn’t seem to support that, although I guess animation has never been that program’s focus.
ImageMagick, it comes with many most linux distros I’ve tried.
After exporting the layers I made a script like this:
convert \
-delay 200 ./01.png \
-delay 10 ./02.png \
-delay 10 ./03.png \
…
-delay 200 ./205.png \
-loop 0 animated.gif
and ran it in the same directory.
I believe the pallet may still be limited, but on a frame by frame basis rather than across the entire animation.
