gollark: I would probably just self-host, personally, which I do for basically all my online stuff since I don't care about monetizing it (and have no chance of getting much out of that, and don't want to support ad networks), I have some limited amount of competence at running servers, and it's not high-traffic or big enough that it costs a significant amount.
gollark: That may not be ideal for getting a long-term audience.
gollark: So, have non-YouTube copies of things, I guess?
