Optimizing User Experience with Clip's New API: Challenges and Solutions

Hello Clip Developer Community,

I've recently been trying to implement Clip's new API into my video streaming application, but I'm encountering some challenges related to data loading speed and real-time synchronization.

Specifically:

When multiple videos are called Granny Game simultaneously from the API, sometimes there is high latency or the returned data is out of sync, affecting the user experience.

Some new endpoints provide a lot of metadata, but the handling and optimization of caching to reduce server load is still unclear.

It's unclear if there's a way to integrate real-time event triggers more effectively when using the new API, especially with mobile applications.

I'd like to open a discussion with everyone:

Do you have experience optimizing video loading speed and metadata when using the Clip API?

Are there any effective caching or event handling strategies you're currently using?

Should I combine WebSockets or push notifications to improve real-time synchronization, or is relying solely on the polling API sufficient?

My goal is to improve the end-user experience, reduce latency, and maximize the capabilities of the new API without overloading the server.

I'd love to hear your opinions and practical experiences. The more detailed your sharing, the better, including code snippets, caching configurations, and workflows you've successfully implemented.

Thank you all in advance! I hope we can find the best solution together!
