Alternate YouTube hosting: https://youtu.be/6FkRULn7nNI
This has been a nightmare. Things that work for most don’t work for some, and things that work for some almost work for others. Can’t self host PeerTube because I don’t have the space. If anyone has an answer that isn’t YouTube PLEASE let me know. I’m willing to pay what I can. Also, if you’re curious or annoyed - I need that 5 second buffer for YouTube to not scream copyrights at me. I hate that :(
Are you doing videos with audio or are you planning to caption gifs?
If the latter, you can upload the video to imgur and grab a .gifv link that is basically a wrapped video file. Not FOSS though.
It is the latter, but imgur has a limit in time, not file size
Ah gotcha, sorry then!
