Uploading video content (self.general)

I was wondering what people have been doing to share videos! It doesn't seem like uploading locally to the instance is currently an option, right?

Nice!

Figure I'll update under your comment.

I spent some time looking and found that Pixelfed and Peertube are recommended. Turns out there's a pixelfed.social which seems good as long as you make your posts unlisted and keep yourself off the public directory (unless you want that).

If you're sharing the link on Lemmy, why would you want it unlisted there?

(Not saying you're wrong, I never heard of pixelfed before — just wondering.)

[–] maggoats 1 points 1 year ago

That's a good question. I don't know, but I figure people using Pixelfed might not generally be the target audience for what I'm sharing on Lemmy. But that's just personal preference I guess?

I haven't used Pixelfed before either! It seems a lot like Instagram, basically?
