The official Twitter support account has revealed that the social media site will be making updates to fix the platform's poor video quality, which has been a problem for its users from the start.
Twitter says they removed the pre-processing step when you uploaded the video that caused the issue.
Doing so will split the clip you're trying to upload into smaller chunks for easier processing, and that results in reduced video quality.
Also, while the improved video quality is expected to be available to all users soon, it will only apply to new video uploads and will not apply to old ones.
Some users say that the quality of this new video is still not up to par with HD videos posted on YouTube, but it looks quite good compared to before.
Here's an example of comparing the quality of old and new videos uploaded on Twitter:
Apparently video quality is better now on Twitter... What's the verdict? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/QsEmTuX59A
