so, the reddit API protest has taken a different direction, now people are uploading gigabtyes of videos to reddit which are just noise. i cannot stress this enough, do NOT run the command ffmpeg -filter_complex "nullsrc=s=1920x1080,geq=random(1)*255:128:128[vout]" -map "[vout]" -t 46 -c:v libx264 out.mp4 in order to generate one of these large video files then upload them en masse in order to slow down their servers, that totally will not help with the protest
