I’m in the process of divorcing google so YT is a HARD no for me. Google had demonetized my friend’s viral video (close to a decade ago) of his 5 1/4" floppy drives playing toccata & fugue in d minor over MIDI and it left a FOWL taste in my mouth. Most of my videos are 45-90 minutes in length. Night time videos are 2.5~gb. My day time videos are 8-10~gb. I’m currently looking at playeur vs odesee but playeur has a much lower file limit. I’d like to do higher quality videos but it looks like I’ll be limited to 720p content even though the original is in 1080p. I am looking to monetize my content as well. What platforms do I have available in this day and now?

    Both rumble and vimeo will work as alternatives. Rumble has been easier to use for me, but I’d check them both out for sure.

      It looks like it’s currently out of my price bracket. I guess I need to grind more on getting more subscribers before I can have a budget to spend on a platform for archival purposes.

        Rumble is free to upload videos to. I haven’t uploaded to Vimeo in a while, so I’m not as sure on that one. I believe the paid tiers for Rumble are just for commercial accounts to use to display videos with no ads and they also unlock streaming.
