Missed opportunity to reference the famous Dropbox hn comment.
I just think there are other closely related use cases where a separate program can add more value, especially in the terminal. I wouldn't suggest most people should use ffmpeg instead of a gui, those are too dissimilar. Another example is cutting out a part of a video, with ffmpeg you need to make two temporary videos and then concatenate them, that process would greatly benefit from a better ux.
- tptacek 7mo agoPoint of order: the Dropbox HN comment is famously misconstrued. People think it was about Dropbox; it was about the Dropbox YC application, and was both well-intentioned and constructive.
- gyan 7mo ago> with ffmpeg you need to make two temporary videos and then concatenate them It can be done in a single command, no temp files needed.
