I’m a self hoster of a lemmy art instance. I would like to have the possibility to make informative videos, for example how do you do large flat areas in watercolor or how does this paper holds up etc.
I guess those videos would be minutes long and seen maybe dozens of times per year (or decade), that’s why I would like to try to self host them (I have a ~700Mb up line) but good luck searching for it or my google-fu (Duck duck go fu…) has totally left me.
I would love to integrate it with lemmy but I’m not there yet (haven’t even compiled the sources) so some sort of web serving would perfectly do.
Any idea of where to start off? FOSS would be lovely off course:-)
#Peertube got already mentioned, but just serving video files may already suffice. Modern webbrowsers are capable of playing videos. Some tweaking of parameters may be necessary when encoding them.
Also, no frills such as dynamic adoption of bitrate/quality or high-level stuff like commenting, likes, or subtitles.

If I don’t go the whole peertube way, I probably just link the videos. Good advice, thanks!
