Yeah, video is just that much more expensive to store. I am sure a lot of current Lemmy instances are still lighter that some "cat meowing for 3 hours" video. And let's not talk about all of those channels that upload dozens of gigabytes of data on a daily basis. I fear we may never have a suitable replacement to YouTube (that it's not just another asshole mega corporation).
