Update on Old Videos
🕑 Added 2021-07-24 02:20:36 +0000 UTCTO BE CLEAR, NOTHING NEW IS AFFECTED. THIS IS ONLY ABOUT OLD VIDEOS.
So Vimeo is basically extorting me and countless other reaction channels (and I'm sure beyond). They basically gave me 3 days to sign up to a "custom business plan" where they want something obscene like $15,000 a month. If not all access to all previously uploaded videos won't be able to be viewed, even though they just charged me their already overpriced yearly fee like 2 months ago. Another reactor I spoke with they wanted over $20,000 a month its obscene!
That being said I am dealing with getting large chunks of old videos edited into larger videos. Basically think 5 videos edited into 1 in order to make them easier to upload since they only gave me 3 days.
The videos affected are as follows...
- One Piece Episode 101-201 (currently exporting from the editing software)
- JoJo's Part 1-5 (all episodes affected)
- Hunter x Hunter Episode 1-18
- Attack on Titan Season 1-3
- Konosuba Season 1 Episode 1-11
- Konosuba Season 2 Episode 1-2
- Solo Leveling Chapter 1-121
- The Misfit of Demon King Academy Episode 1- 13
- The God of High School Episode 1-13
- Higurashi: When They Cry GOU Episode 1-6
As you can see it is only an issue with older videos since I stopped using Vimeo 8 months ago due to how much they raised the price last time. Now they are holding the videos hostage unfortunately.
I will be doing my best to get these larger videos ready & up before they decide to finally shut down access. I have backups of everything so no worries there.
There may just be a few days where any of the above aren't available. I am prioritizing videos in the order they are listed above. Any questions leave them down below!

I was just wondering what episode the tier 3 videos were on in one piece? if there's a good amount to binge right now i might just actually get it
Yea that shit happened to someone I talk to, a much smaller channel, Sirmonkeysuit. They tried to fuck with him and he's only got like 10k subs. They went hard after all his things and tried pull the exotortion thing like a year ago.

Ehhhhhhh not really. Video encoding and streaming is a very expensive thing. Especially if you don’t have the skill set to manage the back end yourself.

having your own site kind of cheaper :D

I thought that the PS5 scalpers were bad, but Vimeo makes those guys look like selfless saints! I honestly can't understand what's going though their heads. Do they honestly think that content creators will pay such outrageous fees for their services? That there aren't much more reasonable services out there? The greed of these guys has truly reached self-destructive levels, and unless they get their acts straight soon their bad reputation is going to drive them into bankruptcy.

I can whip up a quick script tomorrow for my home server to just go through and back all that stuff up, just in case. Your reactions are prime so you can never have too many options for backups.

I always thought vimeo was a bit eccentric
Jack Attack
Fuckin pricks. What a corporate blunder. Why the fuck do they think they get any traffic on their site? People like ruff bring in people and there are ads there too on the side bars that they probably profit from.

We appreciate all the hard work bro! I’m new here but I could tell you’re a grinder!
Billy Joe
Yes nothing new will be affected this is just old videos
Billy Joe
Possibly but I ain’t trying to waste that kind of money by getting a lawyer. Just not worth it

That's dumb fucking money they're expecting every month lmao. Ruff looks like he cleans up and pays handsomely, but this man does not have 15k a month to spare for online storage! That's a very small amount of people thats fortunate enough to call $15,000 "trash money".

Vimeo has become a pain lately

Screw vVimeo, you do what you gotta do man I am behind you 1000%. I will find a way to give you money even if patreon fucks you over. You do you and we will fund a way to support you no matter who tries to get in the way. #Ruff Senpai forever. #maybe I've had a bit too much to drink.

Wow that's assy.
I ain't no Lawyer but I'm pretty sure this level of extortion is enough to atleast get an Investigation going right?

Is petron still uploads black covered today in the rest of the week ?

Vimeo's such a shitty company. All they do is extort creators for money apparently.
What a fucking scam. That’s insane. And I’m sure because of 500 pages of fine print bullshit there isn’t much anyone can do about it.
