Twitter’s poor video quality has been a long-term problem for users of the platform, but on Friday, the company shared some promising news: Videos uploaded to the service now “look less pixelated to get better Watching experience”, Twitter said a tweet from its support account.

The company told The Verge that Twitter removed the preprocessing step in its video pipeline when you uploaded it. After we published this article, the company clarified that this deletion step splits the video into smaller pieces for ingestion, which may reduce quality due to additional processing.

Application researcher Jane Manchun Wong uploaded a video to test the so-called improvements. (This video is a bit loud, so you may need to lower the volume before watching it.)

Although it might look better-in my opinion it does-after we first published this content, Twitter told us that the changes announced on Friday do not yet support Twitter Media Studio, which is where Wong uses to upload videos.
