Some of the README.md gifs are flickering

Hi @joshwcomeau ,

I'm enjoying your Joy of React course a lot so far.

I wanted to let you know that I gave up having the README.md preview side opened in vscode due to most of the gifs (e.g. submit-guess.gif) fading to black at each repetition. For me, that's too much of a distraction.

The first wordle-demo.gif is not affected by the issue, its background remain white when it loops. If we could update the other gifs to behave the same, I think that would be a nice learning experience improvement.

Hey there!

Appreciate the feedback. Yeah, I added the fade so that it was clear when the GIF ends. For looping GIFs it can be hard to tell where it starts, so that’s what I was trying to solve for. But yeah, it should probably fade to white instead of black.

I don’t really have the bandwidth to make any changes to this course right now, since my focus is on my upcoming animations course, but I’ll leave this issue open so that I remember it if/when I do another round of updates to the course =)

Thanks!
