recommendation for a good way to host short videos

I haven't really seen anything in the awesome lists for this, but they are also hard to parse out so I probably missed it.

I've been wanting a way for a while to share shirt videos and such that may be too long to send to people in chats. I have NextCloud, so I can use that, but sometimes I want to send maybe a 30s video, minutes or something. Maybe gifs and the like, or record a video message and share it as a link, kind of like imgur for videos (I host picsur, but it's only for images). I'm not really thinking of anything like a YouTube clone, more of a way to share a video. I do have immich, which would probably work fine.

Are there any recommendations for this sort of thing?

Sounds like you want something like Zipline. I think I've also seen copyparty used similarly if that's more your thing. Any ShareX-compatible file host would likely get the job done even if you don't use ShareX.

Here's an awesome list for this type of file sharing.

thanks a bunch, these look interesting :)

There's Loops if you also want ActivityPub compatibity.

I use picoshare for this matter

oh this looks great! super simple looking, just what I'd be looking for!
