As we all know, in today's modern era, social media has become an important part of our lives, in which Instagram is the most popular app, which has crores of users all over the world, introduces new features to enhance the experience of these users, recently Instagram has made some changes in the way video quality is managed on the platform, which has disappointed users, especially content creators. For some time now, many users have noticed a drop in the quality of their videos, even if they are uploaded in high resolution. This drop in video quality has raised questions and concerns, creators are feeling the impact of the changes. Let's know the full details about it.

1. The link between views and video quality

The resolution of a video is directly related to its performance in terms of views. Initially, videos are uploaded in high quality, but if a video fails to attract enough views over time, its resolution will be reduced.

This change is designed to optimize storage and manage the large number of videos shared on Instagram.

2. Better experience for low-speed internet users

Instagram is also making adjustments to improve the viewing experience for users with slower internet connections. By lowering video quality for less popular content, the platform can load videos faster and reduce buffering, making it easier for users in areas with low internet speeds to watch content smoothly.

3. Impact on smaller creators

One of the biggest concerns about these changes is whether smaller content creators will be negatively affected by the new video quality system. Adam Mosseri addressed this concern, saying that user engagement is more important than video bitrate quality.

4. Creators' reactions

This change in Instagram's approach has led to frustration, especially among content creators who feel their efforts are being undervalued. Many argue that consistent video quality should not be tied to engagement metrics and that it is unfair for creators to be penalized for videos that take time to gain traction.
