Hey! 6GB for 30min of video is beyond unreasonable, even for the master copy in 4K. You need to transcode the thing to no more that 720p or 480p and use some reasonable settings for the constant quality. When 99% of people who view your video are on the mobile phones, with another half on a spotty cell network, you are not gonna do anyone a favor by having a large video file that is unwatchable. As an example from the recent past, a one hour video at a very decent quality was only 130MB. If you need help with transcoding or have any other questions, feel free to ask. 🐶🐾🫡

Thanks! We use DaVinci Resolve for editing. We're going to change it to 480p to start with for now and I'll search for the 'best' settings and will look for a good combination between file size and quality!
Another Rabbit Hole when starting videos I guess.
Just try using Handbreak for now, and peak web oriented distribution. Drop quality a bit, depending on the activity and changes between the frames, and you should be set for now 🐶🐾🫡
