Do not upload to CloudApp by default

The default integration with cloudapp makes this tool much more specialized. I understand that many people will want to upload their created GIFs to share, but making that the default behavior, and especially only providing that single interface seems counterintuitive.
You've made a great CLI tool for creating GIFs from videos, and you would attract a much larger following and userbase if it did not come off as a specialty tool for creating GIFs from videos AND uploading them to CloudApp. It also adds one more dependency to get up and running with the default settings.
Wonderful tool and thank you so much for creating it, but I have no need to share GIFs, nor have I ever heard of CloudApp. I'm sure I am not alone in this stance :)
The integration is an awesome addition, I just wouldn't have it be the default behavior.
Agree...the CloudApp functionality has never worked for me and not only is that side effect unexpected, the program simply doesn't even create an output GIF if the CloudApp part fails.
I plan on removing it entirely when I have time for an update. I don't use CloudApp at all currently, myself.
The dependency on CloudApp is too prescriptive IMO, and should probably be removed.
Agreed. I don't even have CloudApp installed on this thing, haha.
