Hello all, I find most gaming communities are geared around posting news articles or industry discussions/reactions more than actually playing games and swapping stories about our experiences. So I made another community that’s only concerned with the fun part of the hobby centered around media share.
!video_game_screenshots_and_shorts@piefed.social
A community to post your gaming screenshots, webm/mp4/etc shorts, and gameplay clips.
Inspire a conversation, post a funny screenshot, a beautiful landscape, something horrendous or bugged out, photo mode selfies, nostalgia gaming, whatever!
If you don’t want to/can’t upload to your host instance like Piefed allows, here are some (I’d love to hear about others) external suggestions:
𝗦𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘁𝘀:
32MB file size limit: https://postimages.org/
64MB file size limit: https://freeimage.host/
𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀:
You can of course use stuff like Youtube, Peertube, Vimeo, etc.
Stuff you don’t need an account for:
MP4 and MOV file size limit 100MB: https://vidplay.io/
20MB limit WEBM:
𝗥𝘂𝗹𝗲𝘀:
1 - Follow host instance rules:
1b - Instance rules keep it PG-13 keep in mind.
2 - Video length… we’ll follow the spirit of max shorts lengths for now of Youtube Shorts/Tiktok, stuff like that. But that means 60 seconds up to 10 minutes, so idk. I’ll leave it up to community judgement until/unless I get a bunch of feedback on this. I think 3-5 max is more appropriate myself, but this rule is soft for now.
