Goal:
7. Making the site more self-serve for creators.
A creator can provide everything for a video post per the guidelines mentioned in the For Creators page, except for the video on the site itself.
This statement is still true: “The problem with having this encoding occur on the site itself is that it is very resource intensive. For now, authors just provide the link to the original video to be standardized.”
There might be a creative solution for this that doesn’t require standardized encoding of the videos on the site due to how resource-intensive encoding is.
