Comment on If I wanted to make and distribute videos without profit motivate, but also with no or minimum expensive, what would be the best platform?

PeerTube is the obvious one.

Shameless promo time:

An alternative is to make a community on PieFed and set it so only moderators can post. PieFed is Lemmy-compatible but with better support for video posts. Check out https://piefed.social/c/crazyfuckingvideos@lemmy.world as an example of how it can look. Now compare it with https://lemmy.world/c/crazyfuckingvideos. It's night and day.

PieFed doesn't host video files so you'd need to put them on S3 or wherever (imgur is fine if the video is small/short enough like in this video https://piefed.social/post/366849) and then create a post with the url to S3 as the post url.

This is the sort of thinking I’m looking for although videos area projected to be 30 minutes to an hour.

  Yeah, that'll get big fast so you'll need some service that can give you a publicly-accessible URL to your files. There are endless discussions on the internet about cheaper alternatives to S3... Consider Backblaze - https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage/pricing
