Switch from Vimeo hosting to Patreon hosting
Added 2022-11-04 04:29:30 +0000 UTCMy lovely friends and patrons,
In researching some things before renewing my paid Vimeo membership, I found some excellent points for why Patreon should be hosting the videos and not Vimeo, as well as the fact that they will then permanently be viewable by all my patrons ad infinitum. With Vimeo, unless I pay a premium membership for the rest of time, the videos will only be accessible while I actively maintain that status. This seems unfair to all parties as well as a bit of a cop out by Patreon, who pushes the use of Vimeo hosting for content on this platform.
This will require some work on my part to upload each video either to Patreon directly or to upload to Youtube as an unlisted video, which you can then access by link from your membership here.
It will take me some time to do this project, but in the meantime I do have a couple new videos in the works. For the OG patrons, this will be a minor inconvenience to you if you ever go back to watch your favorite old videos. For my new patrons, this means you will not have total access to all the legacy content you should have. I appreciate if you support with me for the next weeks I will be working on this, but I do understand if you decide to take a month break and come back when it is done.
}I think this small bit of front end effort will benefit everyone in the long run, since it will make my videos watchable for ten, twenty or a hundred years! (Or as long as Patreon is supported=
