I noticed the new betas have the ability to upload video clips. I think this has been a huge missing feature that Reddit and other social media platforms have

I've had issues with catbox, specifically it doesn't convert videos if they're incompatible with your browser. Firefox doesn't support H.265 for example.

That's strange, I always check the gifs in catbox, they always play. Do you see the example I listed below?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, that one does. I think it's very dependent on what's been uploaded.

They might even have fixed it now.

That might be it, let's hope!

I mean, gifs will always play, they're from like 1995. H265 is a whole newer and noticeably heavier thing.

That's what I thought too but apparently on Safari it can be an issue
