I didn't dismiss it, I explained why it's insufficient to currently replace e.g. YouTube.

* Peertube tries to be a solution for replacing YouTube with a decentralized system. It is working well, but isn't 100% on the decentralized end of the centralized/decentralized spectrum yet. Its video player embeds can be used on any platform or protocol.
* NIP-96 tries to be a solution for replacing sites like Imgur, and both it and Blossom are preparing for being a solution (or you could say they're already half a solution) to the problem that e.g. IPFS is tackling.

These are different problems to solve, and if you want someone to "post their content natively to Nostr" then you need a proper implementation of a client+server that implements a real YouTube alternative based on e.g. Blossom.

Maybe I missed where you pointed me to that existing. If not, then I think the next best thing is to recommend publishing to a working YouTube alternative that is open-source, customizable, self-hostable, and not centralized to a single corporation.

Please don't get me wrong, I'm not at all against solutions based on what you're suggesting! I just believe it doesn't help actual creators, or their perception of Nostr for that matter, to tell them "no zaps from me", if they post HTTP links to their own content on Nostr, but aren't linking to a single, large mp4 file using the most widely supported (thus much larger filesize) video codec on a pure file hosting server that you approve of.
