It's hard to tell because how ubiquitous big tech make them but the jump in costs from hosting images to hosting videos is pretty insane.

Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

It definitely would be nice if Lemmy supported small clips. I guess the main problem is that it would eat up a lot of media storage. Currently, image size that can be posted is under a meg, and even a small vid can be 10-20 megs in size.
Yeah naw I understand the issues with storage and what not.
Do you want ads? Because that’s how you get ads (to pay for video storage & bandwidth).
