How do I insert an animated gif like this http://gph.is/11pwKAS into a post? I've tried with insert video and image. Is the link broken? Thanks in advance.

Rather than copy the location of the gif, you have to simply copy and paste the image from your source - right click, copy, paste, bada bing, bada boom, Bob's your uncle :h:
Put the link between these

Just use the insert image thing. You need to uncheck the Retrieve remote file and reference locally box.

Yes.

Gifs are often too large for TSR to reference locally. Even when it does, they'll often just be reduced to still images.
