MP4 with H.264 is the most common phone and social export. Short reaction clips convert fastest when you trim to a few seconds.
GIF cannot match MP4 compression. Keep width near 480px and FPS around 12 if you need a shareable file size.
If WebCodecs is available, MP4 conversion uses the fast path; otherwise compatibility mode still produces a palette-optimized GIF.
