how do i post video (question for future posts)

ay mates, this is my first ever post to comradechat or freeship i think

i do not know how to post videos, ever since i posted that Unnamed FOSS Game Thing about assaultcube reloaded, i had to show some gameplay to cement how the mechanics are similar to some shoot games. webms didn't work, had to resort to very reduced gifs that were glitchy due to my recording software at the time screwing up the video

i know there's a file size limit, and catbox won't be around forever like everything in this world. i need an alternative to catbox or a bonafide method to post videos here without having to make an account

please be patient. i am not good with computer

thank you :D

  • PeerTube instances, e.g. TankieTube, integrate well with Lemmy these days.

    Edit: You have to create an account though

    • holy shit, THE tankietanuki, ay mate!!

      i know about tankietube tbh, but something something "ip will be seen" something something very scary. at least it's foss and really good, i like peertube

      the thing i was looking for was the stuff like on hexbear cause you are able to post vids there directly somehow

  • I think stuff like catbox is fine. You will be hardpressed to find a video upload site that is not youtube and also not ephemeral since it is so costly.

    • happy cake! i see the cake next to your name so happy time of cake! or however should i say it!!

      i was told by our good rodent friend graineater that catbox blocks tor users so it's not ideal. that's the reason why i thought about this when i made the Unnamed FOSS Game Thing post at the time. the question was there too
