@bea bigger than i thought, it's 7.44mb - discord handled it fine but i guess masto mangles gifs that big

@lycaon brutalized it down to 289k! i feel like there's probably a knob we can turn for that somewhere...

@lycaon @bea I woulda made a webm, but uh, that takes more than 10 seconds

@lycaon @bea Mastodon converts GIFs to MP4s, whereas Discord seems to never touch uploads at all (besides stripping metadata, possibly).

@Skirmisher @bea ugh. websites that turn gifs into mp4s are the bane of my existence. h.264 hates the things i make.

@bea @Skirmisher i have had an extremely difficult time making videos of my games because of h.264 not anticipating the dumbass way i make things to kill your eyes

@Skirmisher @bea i have to like quadruple the bitrate on obs from my normal streaming bitrate in order to take video of nullpointer lmao

@KitRedgrave @lycaon i did too tbh

@bea @KitRedgrave it *does* look pretty cybre
