One of the only things I find myself missing about reddit is the videos. I’m aware that it’s not really feasible for videos to be hosted on a lemmy instance at the moment, but I’m curious if that might change

It uses WebTorrent for distribution between viewers watching at the same time which can temporarily help with the load on popular videos, but there still needs to be at least one source instance that’s sharing the video “regularly” (for unpopular or old stuff), which ends up having the same bandwidth issues you’d get with any other video platform.
