The app looks great! Feels very fluid.
I have only three requests:
- make it FOSS in spirit of the fediverse (obviously you don’t have to, that’s your choice)
- give me a way to download pics from inside the app. I very often download memes and share them in other chats. You’ve got open external, which works, but it’s an extra step. Downloading in app would just be more convenient.
- lastly, give me a way to buy you a beer 😁
Your best bet would be to use handbrake and transcode them down yourself. I have a relatively. I’ve setup for my living room and thus want to get the best quality I can. Exact opposite reasons to you but, It’s easy to downgrade, basically impossible to upgrade.
But that’s my two cents. Ideally, every file is uploaded with both of us in mind.
