You guys need to learn how to download videos and upload them as mp4s. I'm sorry but Vimeo will absolutely take your entire accounts down. Everything on Mega and Vimeo is worth nothing in the long run.
The problem is I don't really know how to tell women recording their screens on their phone how to convert videos. You CAN upload streams on this site, but you have to reduce the resolution and quality, convert it to a web format, and cut it up into 100mb chunks. I don't know how to explain this to most people.
This is an ffmpeg command. input.mov can be any video or format. This will downscale a video to a web format the site accepts.
ffmpeg -i input.mov -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v baseline -level 3.0 -crf 22 -preset veryslow -vf scale=1280:-2 -c:a aac -strict experimental -movflags +faststart -threads 0 output.mp4
I don't know how to explain this for normies though. It's not as easy and just uploading it to vimeo (since vimeo encodes for you) but it's necessary if you give a shit about any of this content staying up.
