Since I prepared a video for today, but wasn't able to upload it ... and now I have to go outdoors, it's time to improvise a plan B ...
... which means a short, low effort post with one shot I took yesterday afternoon on the beach. I could also not publish a post today and break the habit of posting daily ... but that will be too much for my mild but always present OCD.
I don't know what exactly went wrong while on 3SPEAK, but it kept going ... I remember doing everything I always do, uploaded the video, added the title and description ... the thumbnail ... put all the tags and decided in what community will be published ...when I pushed the blue save button, the usual green message "SAVED" appeared in the upper corner of the screen ... but the encoding didn't start, and didn't take me to the next phase, next page, where things usually end up when encoding starts.
Furthermore, I tried it for several times, but was always the same ... and everything was going one slow with moments when things got stuck and motionless.
The last video I published some days ago, 19.6.2021 ... and all went quick and easy.
