my new workflow is upload the content natively to twitter first
then download it from there so it’s compressed to a format nostr can handle 🫡
Yes, the problem could simply be that you are loading enormous uncompressed MOV files instead of compressed MP4s.
A few ways around this:
Adobe Media Encoder - you can choose custom compression methods and even set a target file size
Online compression tools - some are free or have premium features like removal of watermarks
Believe it or not, one of the best compression tools is Twitter. Videos uploaded there are highly compressed but still manage to be decent quality. You have to use a third-party tool called savetwitter.net to download them, but what you’ll end up with is perfect to upload to Nostr, and works better than linking directly to videos on Twitter’s CDN.
