UPDATE! Vimeo are trying to kill ya boi
Added 2021-10-18 17:40:21 +0000 UTCSo, as you know, the uncuts are uploaded to Vimeo (which Patreon has a partnership with, it's the only video service you can embed on here), and for the amount of GB I need, it costs over 1000 a year
NOW Vimeo has told me that, because of the amount of bandwidth I use, I'm in the top 1% of all users globally, and I will have to pay a further 4000 DOLLARS a year to keep using the service
I've looked at alternatives and it's a struggle - youtube obviously blocks most uncut reactions. Dailymotion did the same when I tried it earlier.
Any ideas welcome! I may have to bite the bullet, write it off as a business expense and pray!
They're running a racket!

Dropbox should be most reliable site

2021-10-21 16:40:51 +0000 UTCI would say taking into consideration all the comments people have already made and the other creators I watch content from on Patreon, I would say Dropbox is the best solution. I haven’t had any issues with content being shared that way.

2021-10-19 14:39:22 +0000 UTCYeah I’ve seen other channels on Patreon using Dropbox, google drive, one hub. The latest one I seen was streamable

2021-10-19 00:50:40 +0000 UTCBitchute. Mega. Pixeldrain. Wetransfer. Breach.tv I tend to not see much banned content on these. Also I reccomend uploading on 2 sources from now on so even if stuff gets deleted there's another source and you'd have time to transfer to a new second source

2021-10-18 23:44:58 +0000 UTCOne of the other patrons I am subscribed to uses drop box because he had similar issues when posting anime reactions

2021-10-18 22:30:33 +0000 UTCYou could check out any of the major cloud storage providers, Google Drive, Mega, Dropbox, One Drive and see which one fits your needs better. It's really difficult it depends on how much storage you need and for some how much bandwidth you estimate to use, otherwise you could setup your own server with full control and host them there but may require for setup initially

2021-10-18 18:52:23 +0000 UTCI would pay an extra $1 on my tier to help cover that increase.

2021-10-18 18:31:12 +0000 UTCDepending on where you see the channel continuing to go, may be worth setting up a website and using some of the more enterprise level hosting solutions. I have no idea if this makes sense financially but having everything under your own control may make things easier and give you more options down the line.

2021-10-18 18:27:57 +0000 UTCHope it all works out man, those prices are crazy
Nate17
2021-10-18 17:49:04 +0000 UTCWas going to suggest this, make it private and link only, maybe wouldn’t even have to be the main channel either in the event it got struck for some reason?

2021-10-18 17:43:20 +0000 UTCI’d look into Megaupload, Dropbox and OneDrive

2021-10-18 17:42:58 +0000 UTCDon’t know If it works but Maybe you could upload unlisted/private videos on youtube and link them here
