It’s more durable, easier to clean, and the cable breaks instead of the port.
Citation on the durability claim?
I’ve been using USB-C since it was released, and none of them ever broke on me.
Yes, USB-C only describes the physical connector, but unless Apple somehow insists on giving users a more shitty experience when using USB-C they are kind of forced to support a reasonable standard for data transfer and charging. We probably won’t get 240W charging or anything close, but we also won’t see a degradation compared to lightning.
TILVids has orders of magnitude less usage than YouTube, both in terms of storage and bandwidth.
Generally speaking you can expect to hit one bottleneck or another whenever you grow one order of magnitude, and fixing these becomes harder each time.
Sorry, you need hardware.
If you are doing a ton of encoding, you could even get specialized hardware like amd alevo (spelling?) card which enables you to encode even AV1.
That being said, what are you doing that requires you to encode h.265 on ancient hardware?
