Converting GIF to TIFF produces an archival container holding the GIF's decoded frames. TIFF supports multi-page documents, so multi-frame GIF animation can be preserved as separate TIFF pages, though most viewers display only the first.

Lossless pixel preservation. Multi-frame TIFF output handles animation as independent pages rather than a true animation format. File size grows substantially compared to compressed GIF. Alpha transfers cleanly.
TIFF is supported by Photoshop, Affinity, GIMP, and professional imaging tools. Browsers don't display TIFF natively.
GIF is a 1987 format limited to a 256-color palette. Its lasting relevance is support for simple animation, which kept it in the meme ecosystem after PNG replaced it for static images. GIF compression is lossless within its palette constraints but usually worse than PNG for the same image.
TIFF is a 1986 container format used throughout professional photography, print production, and archival imaging. It supports lossless compression, multiple pages, 16-bit-per-channel color, embedded color profiles, and high bit-depth grayscale. Print shops, medical imaging, and GIS systems expect TIFF.
As multi-page TIFF, yes: each frame becomes a page. But TIFF isn't a proper animation format and most viewers show only the first page. For real animation use WebP or APNG.
TIFF is standard in professional imaging and print workflows. If your target is print shops, archival systems, or scientific imaging, TIFF is expected. For web or general use, PNG is simpler.

Yes. The converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your images are never uploaded, never sent to a server, and never leave your device.
There's no hard limit, but because everything runs in your browser you're bounded by available memory. Very large images (over a few hundred megapixels) can hit browser memory limits. Process in smaller batches if you run into issues.
