If it's like, mostly a still background, AV1 might be able to keep it crisp at 1080 in that size. But if it has more going on then yeah it would probably be too heavy

720p should be guaranteed to look crisp without too much CPU time, but maybe load faster with more CPU time

480p should look as crisp as 480p can and load easily without much CPU time

I think nostr.build might be able to do video compression too, they were at least talking about rolling it out

It will introduce a ton of artefacts. Cinematography is kinda my thing, so no nueno :P

Btw I am very familiar with how compression and most codecs work, I just have a level of quality I will just not go below.

Just gonna be hard to stream then. I wish more people would use nostr's BitTorrent spec, not sure if this would be a good use for it, but you could upload to archive.org and then post it on nostr both as a link and as a torrent magnet to the archive's torrent so that they seed it for you

I don't want to spend time jumping through 100 hoops just to post something, I prefer to spend that time in the quality of the content.

If only nostr had a YouTube killer app by now

Even with nostr design, there obviously are ways to make this work with a great UX, I just don't think there is an incentive for people to work on it.

Though kinda strange considering that most of the things people consume on social medias is video.

I don't think it's a matter of incentive, world is just too sick to quit addictions to corporatism and stuff

It's not lke the corporations walk to your door and shoot you up with heorin and you are addicted.

At the end of the day you are very free to stop, in fact I think taking personal responsability for one's social media addiction, it the only way to avoid it.
