I'd love to see more funny video communities. (Bad drivers, epic fails, etc) I know it's basic, apologies. Sometimes I just need to laugh.
I understand the appeal, and I like these types of video posts too sometimes. It's hard for me to say what is the correct amount because I wouldn't like Lemmy to turn into the Tiktok form that Youtube, Instagram, Reddit have adopted from the mass of brainless short-form video content.
Attaching video media to posts is harder in Lemmy than it is in Mastodon, that is something that could be improved.
I wish we had better video upload choices. I tried Streamable but they delete your videos after a few months and most of the other alternatives (Vimeo etc) are paid. I tried Peertube and my video sat in mod limbo. So I guess it's YouTube or nothing for me?
