    Use torrents, lemmy is not meant to be a file sharing service. We can’t afford the hosting costs for video and music.

      I disagree, I am sorry, I really do. This MUST be supported.

      1 terabyte of storage costs 5$ per month, 3 terabyte of data costs 3$ per month. You can host my 800kilobyte music file the same way you can host my 800kilobyte image and my 800kilobyte video It cannot be hosted elsewhere as page load means cognitive break from the original message, it ruins the message.

      paywall the feature I don’t mind I will pay it forward

      pict-rs supports video, search these terms

      [media.video]
      allow_audio = false 
      PICTRS__MEDIA__VIDEO__ALLOW_AUDIO = true
      

      Music is just a video file without a video track and video already works !
