I often use Imgur.

I didn’t know if .world or .dev allow it, but .works let you upload short videos directly I think, at least they used to.

But hotlinking I think would be best. Firefox usually lets you copy the source link, but idk which formats and sites integrate well with Lemmy.

Redgifs appears to be lewd NSFW content only. Do they allow other content?

For sure. It’s the best site for hosting. Why do you there’s so much porn there?

ByteOnBikes ,

That reminds me of those folks who upload math classes to porn sites.

I see a lot of people on here using Catbox to host videos, but I haven’t tried it personally. You could also use Imgur which has worked well for me to post pictures. I know they support video uploads as well.

What about posting a description of the content and a link to the original?

Some of the videos are on Reddit, Twitter, or Instagram. They don’t work well when shared elsewhere.

I want to download the video and reupload it in a better place

JohnDClay ,

I think Reddit works? Instagram and Twitter don’t though. I liked the Twitter mirrors for that, since you could hot link their videos, but I think they all got shut down.

Even if Reddit works at the moment, it might not soon, as they are enshittifying at a very rapid pace.
