Show HN: DrinkMe – A Minimalist Video Compressor

I recently built my first ElectronJs app, a minimalist video compressor called DrinkMe. It uses a two-pass FFmpeg encode and estimates the final size based on the original video’s duration, resolution, quality, and size.

The idea behind it is to provide an alternative for non-power users who struggle/don't want to learn how to use CLI-based programs like FFmpeg, or even Handbrake (whose myriad of settings and options CAN be overwhelming).

The target reduction is usually around 80–85% of the original for high-res files, but it adjusts dynamically if the video’s already compressed.

All feedback is welcome!
