The maximum file size for each image you upload to Rise is 5 GB. As far as recommendations or best practices, I'll leave that to the advice of the community based on their experience.
You can add a GIF anywhere you can add an image--Labeled Graphic, Image centered block, and Image full-width block to name a few!
This is with the assumption that you're using the GIF for animation purpose.
We try to keep our animated gifs that we use as cover images under to 2-3 MBs total and at a 16:9 aspect ratio. Most of our ani-gifs are just Camtasia projects exported as Animated Gifs with very minimal amination.
For standard gifs with no animation, I'd expect something nearing 1000px x 1000px to come in at well under 300KB file size. But, in that case, I'd also lean towards JPG or PNG.
