A video file can never be too large. The more bits dedicated to image quality, the better.
When there's no particular need of high definition (nothing here that is small or hard to see, nor particularly pleasing aesthetics), the gains from a big file falls away. And the upsides of a smaller video is that people with poor internet speeds can stream it more easily, and it takes less space on the servers (which are not free to run here on the fediverse).
Worth a smaller file size imho
Absolutely.
Unpopular opinion maybe, but any resolution larger than 720p is wasted on a laptop monitor and any resolution larger than 1080p is wasted on anything that is not a movie theater.
Let us know how the MOV runs on your Amiga⸮🙄
Don't be ridiculous. MOV is an inefficient, out of date format.
… why are you telling me for‽ mullvad published in that container format. I encode VP8+OPUS ?h×640w.
