Hi everyone,
As you may or may not know, I have a giant backlog of video content that I've either half edited and never posted, or still needs to be cleaned up and shared.
As much as I'd love the simple convenience of posting these videos up on YouTube, I don't think it'll cut it. For one, while YT claims that they allow 18+ content if it's properly marked, I don't trust them. I've heard several stories of artist having their Google accounts nuked for posting lewd process vids on YT. I don't know if the content wasn't properly labeled, or if they somehow ran afoul of the content police's spoken and unspoken standards. Whatever the case, I don't want to suffer a similar fate.
To that end, I've checked all the appropriate "18+" boxes in the YT creator sharing hub, and left this video as Unlisted. Things SEEM okay, but I'm still worried. This can't be a long term solution for anything.
Nudity, check. Mildly sexually suggestive, check. I'm okay, right YT? All I need to do is mark the video as +18…right??? ¯\(ツ)_/¯
Another issue is that the YT video content can't easily be downloaded by any of you that want to keep a copy for your archives. That cannot stand.
In the end, it probably makes the most sense to only upload family friendly, non-18+, mildly-ecchi-style content to YT, and post the spicier fare on places like Proton Drive or Dropbox for convenient downloading.
To that end, here's the DL link to the current video on Proton Drive:

If any of ya'll have any ideas, or know of another artist that does posts in some place that's 18+ friendly, let me know. Aside from the basic file hosts for downloads, IDK, but as long as I can put these vids somewhere, it's my intent to get them edited, up, and outta here. :)
The juicy stuff needs a place to go.
All the best,
Ecchi

You're probably right about YT. After this, I think I'll just stick to posting PG-13 content, lest tempt Sauron's gaze. When it comes to Patreon, ahem, according to the rules, (updated July 29th,) sadly, any account that posts NSFW content is barred from uploading videos in platform, so no embeds. https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017431292-Posting-videos I can however attach a video file to a post (I've retroactively done that for this video) though the file size is limited to no more that 200MB. It'll work for this video, but even with all the powers of Handbreak and H.265 compression, there'll be plenty of files that are just too big to post this way. I think for now, I'll do a text or image post on here, link to Proton Drive, and leave the video in the attachment area if it's small enough. That should do. Thanks for helping me work through these thoughts. :)

To be honest I would not risk anything nsfw related on YouTube. Even if hidden. You should be able to have mp4 videos that you can just put up on patreon to download straight I think.
