amen. I just discovered AV1 so that seems cool as far as space saving goes
I just wish we had more AV1 releases
It's not like a ton of people have compatible hardware anyway. It'll eventually become more common as more uploaders can encode and downloaders can decode.
As far as I know most uploaders prefer software encoding for the best result. Even with the most advanced encoder (e.g. SVT-AV1) and the latest hardware, that becomes a taxing task with AV1.
