Videos get blurry in Strava. Looks fine before upload to Strava, and looks fine if uploaded and watched at Google Photos. 1080 60fps or 30 fps. Have not tested 3k yet. Any solution to this?

Most videos are, Strava compresses them beyond recognition. You could vote for 

 

You're right, Strava's video compression is always rough. But their handling of Meta AI video? It's just awful. Seriously. If I take a video on my Pixel with similar quality (1080p, 30fps), it looks so much better on Strava. I'm clueless about codecs, so maybe there's a difference there. Yet, if I upload those exact same files to Google Photos, they both look fine and similar. It's like Strava is specifically picking on the Meta AI videos!

Strava compresses more than Instagram. That is not going to change. Make sure uploading on Wifi - might help.
