Just tried it. First off, love the simplicity. Do one thing, do it well. It worked great!

So now, the feedback. I would have no login. Or make it optional, like pastebin, but for video. 2nd, allow Facebook to google login.

One last thing, how can you afford this??? I’ve thought about doing apps like this, and then I think about my aws bill!

For the AWS bill, inbound traffic is free and S3 doesn't cost much (0.023$ / GB), knowing that you'd only store one video once.

Outbound though traffic though is where it hurts: somewhere around 0.15$ / GB, and that's for each and every time any one plays a given video.

1 minute of h.265 would sit around 22Mb (according to the first source I found https://medium.com/@PoloPinetta/youtube-4k-and-h-265-uploads...)

Better get that compression going, and I hope they figure out a way to make some money soon enough, but for a small user base it should be manageable

Put a CDN in front of S3 to keep your bill low (you’ll only get dinged for the first origin to edge transfer out), or store in Backblaze B2 instead and use Cloudflare (they have a storage/CDN partnership making the overall cost much lower than S3).
