You didn't ask me, but you might want to know that I just tried generating one of these and posting it in r/1GBVidsOfRandomNoise. It seems reddit compressed my beautiful 1GB video to hell:
Unacceptable for any true connoisseur of 1GB videos of random noise. I want to see every flashing pixel in full HD
Compressing 909MB down to 28MB must require some serious compression, must be pretty processer intensive for the reddit servers doing that
Hardware encoders are common and "cheap" these days. They may not be as good as properly tuned software based encoders, but they are fast.
I don't think you should upload those to a forum called 1GBVidsOfRandomNoise. If Reddit finds out, it would be easy for them to remove all videos from the forum. Instead, you want to create many small forums that do not attract attention or upload the videos to your profile. The same with accounts, if you upload 100 random noise with one account, when they delete that account, the damage would be reversed. It would be better to do that with 10 different accounts (if they find and delete one, the other 9 might survice if they are unnoticed). See https://nitter.net/TheHorizon2b2t/status/1670225459748147200#m
Since I deleted the only reddit account I gave a damn about, I'm quite happy just making throwaways with yopmail addresses each time I wanna post :)
