    Hey everyone, I thought it was already the case but, videos uploads are definitely planned for Primfeed. It's just another level of complexity and cost. I've made some research about it, and hopefully I can add videos this year! And it will be likely reserved to Pro members at first.

    this is SO essential to me! no sl videos on primfeed is a reason for me not be very active on primfeed :(

    If PrimFeed's goal is to replace Flickr as the go-to SL platform, then enabling video uploads should definitely be part of the plan. At the very least, posts should be able to embed videos from platforms beyond just YouTube

      The77sim3 Resident I agree, links to video's on Naughty Machinima and Slushe should be supported.

    Videos take a lot of bandwidth.

    We should not do this at the moment, even though it is nice to see.

    For now, links to YouTube can be used.

      Fullperm Alpha Sadly, YouTube is only PG rated which rather defeats the purpose

      Svetlana Mosienko I know that storing video data can be super costly for web sites (and for Primfeed platform) so allowing Embedded thumbnail or Embedded video replay (*if the external platform allows it mechanically and legally) could still be nice than no video showing in primfeed posts, don't you think?

      I think embedded video would still be a step forward. More options before directly-primfeed-hosted video posting become available, right?

      There are many video type social platforms available already today, so why don't we just make a good use of them, the other social platforms 😏 This cross-social links/posting could also have side effect of invlting people from other platforms to primfeed 😏😏 (and also to SL… he he he…) instad of win-lose-?, it could be win-win-win for Primfeed-them-residents

    Probably the feature I am looking forward to the most! I like to do videos every now and then and would love to be able to share them here.

    For me, hosting video on Primfeed is unnecessary. YouTube, TikTok, and Gyazo already do a fine job of this. What is necessary, is to play the video, or at least have a Preview Image of it, in the Primfeed post. At present, a post with a photo looks great, but a post with a video looks like nothing. Thank you!! :)

    I feel like this ought to be a Pro feature. Videos are expensive to host.
