I have 90+ very short videos (around two or three minutes each) that I'd like to share with some family and friends. Is there a good free place to host them?
I'm not in love with YouTube, and it only lets me upload a small number a day. Is there a good alternative?
People are probably downvoting because Pixelfed is meant to be a community platform, not a file host. Using it to dump large files onto without ever expecting to engage in the community is using up somebody else's resources selfishly, making Pixelfed a poor choice for your stated purposes.
Does this keep them private, and accessible by URL to friends and family who don't have accounts?
I assume if OP is sharing videos to friends and family they don't want them public, and of course they won't want all those friends and family to have to sign up for accounts just to be able to view them.
