How β€œshort” is your video ? You might be hitting the limit for free uploads on nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7 which is what they both use to upload

If it exceeds 7MB in size you won’t be able to upload on the free tier

Yes this is a problem. I just onboarded a friend who is a content creator but not a bitcoiner nor nostrich (although he would probably be interested). He wants to upload short videos but I’ve been having to upload to my satellite.earth account and share the link with him. How is a normie supposed to figure this out?

It's bad UX all around.

β€œJust download Primal app. But if you want to upload video content, then you should use a CDN like Satellite.Earth. But wait, don’t plug your private key into that site. Download an extension that stores your private key locally and lets you sign events in the browser.

Oh great, you got on satellite.earth, now you just need to buy some storage on their CDN.

Don’t forget to use a non-custodial lightning wallet like Mutiny to pay for that invoice. Then just upload your video, copy the link and paste in your note. Easy!”

haha. on point. it's bad. we can do better, eventually. in the meantime, this isn't a good solution for the masses, but this is a good solution for your friend. if he's a legit content creator and wants to use primal, we can get him access to upload 1GB videos.
