this is an example of a video casted through /vibra the fundamental challenge of building a video first client on top of farcaster today is: how do we level up the playing field so that old and new users can feel that their content reaches people in the same way? imagine you have a power badge. you can cast video on warpcast well, if you don’t. you probably can’t. so it becomes tricky. and that’s why we decided to kickstart this client with this frame, transforming the video into a gif today, every video casted through vibra is rendered on warpcast as a frame thoughts?

Where are these video hosted? AWS? Couldn't they just deplatform you like Youtube does?

today, they are hosted on google cloud services but if you have a good idea on how to implement this we are always looking for what is best for our users cc @cassie will it be possible to host videos on Q? if so, do you have an idea on the price range competitively speaking with web2 solutions? (i haven’t ever talked about Q with my team on /vibra, but this would be a game changer first approach 👀) (screenshot of vibra below. its a mobile video first FC client that also supports live streaming. i joined the team 1 month ago and we are building a v cool farcaster client)

tbh, besides ICP I don't know of anything that can hold that amount of data onchain to be streamed. i don't even think ICP can handle video streaming at this point. i don't have dev level knowledge of these types of things although i'm trying to learn more every day. It's a really cool project, and I was just trying to shed light on the fact that many things we do are hosted on permissioned and centralized services because its a conversation we need to have. I really think that the existing power structure will attempt to bring web3 under its control at some point when it becomes clear that crypto will never just go away. the most logical point would be cloud providers like AWS.
