How are you storing/serving the videos? You might look at a service like mux.com which both hosts files behind a CDN but optimizes video delivery with adaptive bitrate streaming. If you are serving whole/raw video files off Cloudfront that could impact your costs. Source: 11 months ago

Vimeo is a solid platform. Most alternatives you'll find searching for "vimeo vs." are just marketing / billing wrappers around the mux.com streaming platform. If you are somewhat technically inclined you can use mux.com directly and embed it on your website yourself. Source: about 1 year ago

Feels like there's no real alternative to Youtube since they have large enough capital to run the site to be barely able to break even. Feels like something like https://mux.com would meet the purpose jut feels like free streaming is way too costly. Source: about 1 year ago

The repo is unmaintained, ever since Matt moved from Twitch to mux.com, so the library does need a maintainer. There are some bugs and PRs that could do with merging to head, but it is generally functional, with some quirks. The code is used in both OBS and Gstreamer Rust bindings. Source: over 1 year ago

So Senja uses Mux under the hood for video storage and streaming. It's an amazing solution! Source: over 1 year ago

I use Yout for music. Go to a youtube video, and change the URL from youtube.com to yout.com. There is a download limit of 3 songs per hour, but that can be avoided by using a VPN. Source: about 1 year ago

I use this one all the time https://yout.com/. Source: about 1 year ago

Https://yout.com/ I use that, but you can only download like 5 vids every few hours, so if you’re like mass downloading for some reason it might not be the best for you. Source: over 1 year ago

Just saying, if you download a song from youtube as an mp3 (I just use yout.com), you can upload it to your local files on spotify, and then add it to your playlists like any other song. Source: over 1 year ago

You can just put the url of one of the youtube videos into yout.com and download it as an mp3, and then look on your "local files" from spotify and add it to any playlist!! Source: over 1 year ago
