Didn't know where else to post. Does anyone know the difference between filing for an H-1B Change of status (F-1 visa to H-1B visa) compared to filing for H-1B without change of status (not an F-1 student and outside the US to H-1B visa)?

You're welcome.
Changing status - stay in the US on OPT and can work on cap gap / OPT. Once approved, you are automatically on H-1 status from October 1 or whenever your job stars. You don’t need visa stamp unless you want to travel internationally.
Outside: Wait to get a stamp, can only start working once you are approved for the visa, enter the US and activate status. Can take much longer than CoS due to visas being sent randomly into administrative processing.
