For terminal based things I've been using `asciinema`. There are various options to play/render such recordings, such as to an interactive SVG. SVGs are lot smaller than GIFs in file size, and are even scalable.

See one of my projects for example: https://github.com/timvisee/ffsend#ffsend-wip

Even better is ttyrec + tty-player for full self-hosting without a third party intervening. You get interactive playback controls and scroll buffer access while paused.

That isn't something I can embed in a GitHub README. But it looks cool anyway.
