What happens when manufacturers of e.g. Series compress your videos too much to upload them to (Netflix)

Then the video quality is bad

That does not happen.

you have bad internet with your cell phone. Use Wi-Fi.

that's why you also have the color gradient that is a result of the compression. But that's on your side because the download is too slow

Ha

The quality of the footage just gets bad.

In conventional compression processes, you can clearly notice so-called compression artifacts, which are structures in the image that only arise from compression and are not present in the raw material. They will soon become more and more.

Another possibility for compression is to lower the resolution, what should happen to the image material should be clear.

The distributors of the series will hardly make the compression so strong on Netflix that the image material will suffer visibly. At most, it may be that Netflix itself lowers the resolution if your internet connection is too slow.

Ok thanks, it was just about the fact that on my P30 pro in videos the background is sometimes edgy no matter on Youtube or Netflix and I was told that it would be because of the video's commission

Ha

Yes it does, but this is probably due to the fact that your internet connection is too slow or Netflix and Youtube think that your connection is too slow.

So I have not seen this with HD films yet and I do not think that the producers themselves compress the film so strongly.

The content producers do this to the required minimum quality or better quality. Isn't that the Netflix that is not controlled, on the contrary, there are the meticulous pixel counters and the delivered resolution is measured to avoid that in the end only FHD material that is upscaled in the post is cheered. For example, Arri changed the sensor and the readout method for Netflix and converted old Alexa and Amira to "Netflix versions". The reason was missing for Netflix by 100 pixels with the required DCI4K minimum image width or otherwise UHD resolution is not sufficient for Netflix

The problem is the download or its bandwidth if you use stream because delivery quality or QoS (Quality of Service) is mostly used. QoS delivers different resolutions and compression levels depending on bandwidth and target size / browser / player, from 4GB hour down to 300MB Sunde.
