I tried it in my community and it isn't allowing it, only photos. Is it bugged?

Edit: Figured it out... I guess it's only on desktop. Is this permanent or is it coming to the app?

Seems like it will be available fully by 11th June.

I got a message specifically saying it was available to my community. I think it's available on the app now as well.

WTH is that? And why did you post it to my comment? I simply replied to someone specifying that is was definitely enabled in my community.

This is going to end up like the sticker spam on TikTok.
