Self hostable gif database? (lemmy.ml)

This might sound silly but I really do miss sending gifs. I think it gives lighthearted fun. However I do not want to use giphy or tenor api I would rather have a bunch of gifs self hosted and accessible on my home server.

Matrix has their sticker solution but from what I have gathered they can see that data in your chats. You can get a gif plugin but I am sure matrix and giphy can see your requests with it as well.

My solution as of right now is trying to host immich and having a gif album that is accessible by my users. Reason being is the ai may prove to be useful when searching for the perfect gif/reaction. I have ran into a problem though, I have no idea how to batch download gifs from giphy and tenor. It seems people don't just share their gif collections all willy nilly like they do memes.

Is this the best solution? How would you go about self hosting such a service?

(And if you have large amounts of gifs... Can I have some 👉👈 🥺)

Sorry for the silly request for help 😂

Thank you all so much.
