Our client-side image optimization feature never worked with videos, only still images. So, even if we were to re-enable it, I’m afraid that won’t help your users.

If your users want to share large videos, I’d recommend using [Video Upload to YouTube and Vimeo using Theme Component](https://meta.discourse.org/t/video-upload-to-youtube-and-vimeo-using-theme-component/170079) instead.
