Just a heads up for anyone who posts media and especially for those who want to be nice to nostr.build (npub1nxy…avr7) servers:
This video started as 184 MB, but I did the quick conversion I always do for web media, and the mp4 version was 3.9 MB.
That’s a 97.9% reduction in size!
Handbrake is a free tool that I use constantly, and you can use ffmpeg CLI if that works better for you (or you want to build an auto-tool with Ai to do it with a simple drag and drop function). But you can convert video to vastly more efficient formats without even being able to see the difference in quality, *especially* if you did a screen capture.
Many don’t realize how important that step is, so it’s good to remind people who don’t think about it.
