"The process for a subpoena takes forever"

No, it doesn't. And that "forever" are human rights that are established and should require a subpoena to contest.

I mean, we’re talking about publicly viewable stuff, here. Both the citizenry and law enforcement ought to have ways of archiving stuff like this.

(I can imagine lots of cases how this could be used to fight police corruption.)

That's for private, non publicly accessible, content.

If you post a video of murdering someone publicly - no subpoena should be required.
