I hope VVC will get the same psychovisual love that its predecessors had. The potential is there for sure.

Meanwhile in the anime community: writting a million python packages and what not for any bit of pipeline

Yep. Most of us started as fansubber eons ago. Honestly, if it wasn't for subbing, I would have never learned how to use Aegisub, write LUA scripts, use Avisynth to deal with telecined contents, filter out issues, re-encode in xvid etc. Ironically, I would have probably never joined Crunchyroll, then Viewster, then Sky. It all started on Doom9 and from one passion, anime, I discovered another, encoding, and it led me to who I am today. It's funny to think how it all started: a bunch of people gathering on a forum subtitling and encoding anime in their free time for passion and wanting to do it better, tackling the problems we had at the time.
