Confirmed this was never an issue before and is a huge issue now. Previously, you could send with no size limitations and HD quality video and it never compressed it.
My guess is the carriers wanted to save money on bandwidth and data usage so worked a deal with apple to constrain video size/quality via iMessage.
One of my biggest selling points of telling others iPhone is better was the fact you COULD send uncompressed video via iMessage. You can’t anymore though
