Why is catbox so fucking shit and is there anything I can do about it?
See pic related
I can't watch the video because it would buffer every other minute and I can't download it either.
So why are anons uploading to that shit and are there any alternatives?
Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
>>
It's called bittorrent but a lot of anons are cucks behind CGNAT.

Become a suporter/donate if you care so much. It used to be a niche SEKRIT file sharing service used by mostly weebs but then word got out. Demand is outpacing supply and it wouldn't surprise me if it got shut down if it religiously maintains its no-ad policy.

it's a 20 minute... 480p/h.264/aac video full of macroblocking, aktually
it's a really low quality russian video of something, taken from a tape, it's over-exposed as fuck and poor contrast

Anything like those is fine. In fact having multiple options is even bettet because it turns online backups/file sharing into a hydra thing.

this
>>100177335
tech illiterate fags are retarded, simple as. 264/(fdk/apple)aac does work, but it's nothing compared to the power of HEVC, VP9 or AV1.

no transparency report, why would you assume the best situation in such a case

Thanks, I watched it already, after some time it stopped stuttering.

>>100177349
>(fdk/apple)aac
that's the problem with aac, when encoded properly, at >96 kbps it's just as good or nearly as good as opus
but there are 1000 different encoders out there and the commonly used ones are ass and default to 192 kbps or higher to compensate, vorbis/opus doesn't have this problem, the official encoder is already perfect and nobody has had the need to make another one from scratch
if only ffmpeg's aac encoder didn't perform worse than lame...
