- londons_explore 3y agoEspecially when there are various neural net compression methods on the horizon that look like they can probably reduce file sizes 10x or more for similar user enjoyment.
- hot_gril 3y agoYeah, I don't mess with webp, VP8, etc. I see near zero benefit to myself from that, with significant downsides. Like, Google Meet insists on using VP8/9. Why, cause it's "free?" The strain on my laptop and extra energy usage for it to CPU-en/decode video ain't free. Zoom just uses h.264 instead of being annoying about it.
