Automatic File Compression on videos and images

Charlie Webster

I think that for either nitro users, or everyone, lossy file compression should be done automatically by Discord on images and videos to fit the file under the limit. For example if you have a 100MB file, and nitro basic with a 20MB file upload limit, I think it would be useful for Discord to ask you whether you want to send a lossy compressed version of the file at 20MB. Obviously this would mean that for things like videos the longer they are the worse they would look, but I think this is a lot better than not being able to send them at all.

I think this would be very useful for things like sending game clips over Discord, rather than having to compress it somewhere else and then send it.

    other websites like Telegram have a MUCH higher file size cap for free users. 8 gigabytes. But Discord's only lets you do 500 MB if you're paying, and a measly 8 when you're free. I can barely send pictures from my phone with that cap.
