#92This is very inspiring. I quit using Flutter because the required size was too large, including cache and so on. I’m only using a 256GB Mac M1. Anyway, the UI is beautiful, you must have some design skills already.
Damn! I built the app on the same machine. thank you so much!

#95Earlier quoted context omitted.
Even though saying "small nitpick" is redundant in terms of its literal meaning (denotation), communication is about more than simple denotation. It's also about emphasis, tone, and emotions, and saying "small nitpick" can be a good way to soften criticism and add a little humility and politeness.
This particular linguistic construct is called a pleonasm! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleonasm
One example the article notes is tuna fish.
When I was a kid, tuna and tuna fish were two different things.
Tuna was tuna straight out of the can, with nothing added. After all, the can says tuna right on it.
Tuna fish was tuna mixed with mayonnaise and crunchy things like pickles and celery. It was what today would be called tuna salad.
So if mom asked, "would you like a tuna sandwich for lunch?" we would reply "can we please have a tuna fish sandwich instead?" Because who wants plain tuna in a sandwich?
If she asked if we wanted a tuna salad sandwich, we would be completely confused. Is it a salad or is it a sandwich?

#96Looks great, beautiful landing page and it looks like a labor of love! - Most of the page titles are the (same)[1] which doesn't seem good for SEO. Each of the pages like "Pricing" or "Compress Your Video Files" should be differently named. - The "video compressor" tool would be much more useful if you could enter a target file size. This is a frequent use case, if you want to send a video over email or social media…
Does SEO really matter still? I have seen a few videos that show how the SEO algorithm works a few months ago, at least googles, and you basically can't optimize in that regard.
For search engines, not so much. But it helps for linking to pages on social media.

Maybe I'm old school, but I won't "buy" (rent?) subscriptions for software. I expect to own it outright, at to receive at least security updates for a reasonable time period.
> I expect to own it outright Unless you are the legal creator or buy the copyright, you never own software outright, you license it from the owner (or its public domain and has no owner.)

#98If this had screen capture recording integration I would 100% buy !
I have been on handbreak for years and what you have does look like an improvement.
Good luck and congratulations!

#99What software do you use for generating those demos of how the software works? Or did you edit them yourself?
I have a hunch it's screen.studio on mac

#100Good job! Small bug report, when the UI is downloading the FFMPEG binaries, the UI says 'Astimed time' instead of 'Estimated time'.
