Working on it. It is HARD, that’s why so few are out there. Small scale, easy. Increase load and requirements grow exponentially and so is need to fund it. Until someone decides to invest into that and have a team work on it full time, I don’t see it happening in near future. Simple video upload, take Handbreak, encode video MP4 for web, upload to nostr.build, enjoy. Anything more than that, and we run into multitude of complexities. As an example, recent video that went semi-viral on Nostr, consumed about 1TB of data in one day, estimated to consume another 2-3. The cheapest CDN that is available will charge $5 per TB. Now do the math and multiply by number of videos and users. 🐶🐾🫡

Storage is cheap, so I would go with SLA based provider who can guarantee high availability 🐶🐾🫡

What if someone made a program to allow people to run their own sever nodes like with a #umbrel with a couple TB harddrive but for video. It could be uncensorable video content! Only problem I see is that it's uncensorable content..... some videos should not be available online.
