So I was always a lurker and never uploaded anything, but I want to contribute to Lemmy as we all leave Reddit… can anyone help me upload a video from my iPhone? I’m not sure if it’s an issue with it being large (500+ MB for a 45s video), a wrong codec (the standard on iOS 16.5), or something else. Thanks!

Hello, I believe there is a limit to upload sizes to keep server space down. Right now I only have 50 GB and about 80% of it is used up. I'm not sure what it is I'll have to ask the devs.

That makes total sense... I'll have to investigate compressing and making GIFs etc to share cat craziness and other /r/abruptchaos, thanks!
