 Thoughts on posting videos to nostr? is it clunky or works ok nowadays?  
 Depends on the video length? You're using Primal and verified so I'm guessing you have a 1GB limit per file. Otherwise you can upload to Nostr.build with a paid account or use zap.stream or flare.pub. 
 cool yeah I'll try posting some shorts 
 works well, better with a paid account on nostr.build

 
 Nostr.build paid account works perfectly with Amethyst. Upload media any length to amethyst and it just works. 
 Here's an attempt:

 It worked, but had a few seconds of delay.  
 works pretty good nowadays! 
 Using Primal as my client, I have issues posting a damn photo. I usually have to upload twice. 
 BUT I STILL LOVE IT 😍 
 Get a @nostr.build premium account. It just works.

 You can upload to https://satellite.earth/cdn

Very affordable 
 I still have to post a photo twice

 What client are you using ? 
 Primal 
 I use nostr build and I love it. My videos are short under 10 minutes. They look clear unlike on X. 
 If you have a paid service video content, is there a way to limit the viewers to subscribers only? (Noob here) 
 I don’t know ask @nostr.build 

Welcome 🫂 
 Nostr.build doesn't have a way to limit viewers or non/subscribers. Your nostr.build account media is either private (you only) or fully public, shared.

You should check out nostrwine creatr, they offer what I think you’re looking for.

 Ok cool. Thank you 🙏 
 Check out creatr.nostr.wine ... that plus media hosting might work 
 Would love to see an app that’s similar to tiktok on nostr, I don’t think videos like the ones on tiktok are giving much value in terms of growth of a person but I think it’s better if there is something like that on nostr than a private centralized business.

 this is actually why I was hesitant to just post full episodes on here. will probably just do shorts here  
 short videos work 
 I was able to upload short videos on Damus and Primal some weeks ago but now both apps show a fail after an upload. But I see people like Matt Cratter uploading longer videos so it must be something I’m doing wrong. 
 I've posted my last videos via a paid  @nostr.build account. Nobody watches them but technically it works well. Videoquality is also higher than with Twitter. This is how my dashboard looks:

 Upload large videos to some Webserver you own and just post the link
