MODERATORS
I don't understand why they bother with the "modern" method if the fallback works so well and is much simpler and cheaper.
From what I read, the modern solution has smooth 60 fps, compared to 2-10 FPS with the JPEG method. Granted, that probably also factors in low network speeds, but I'd imagine you may hit a framerate cap lower than 60 when just spamming JPEGs.
you don't need 60 fps to read text? All you need is to stream the text directly?
it seems like they sometimes need to stream the finished app coded, too
(still no need for 60 fps...)
