gollark: In my experience VPSes don't really offer reasonably priced high-capacity HDD storage.
gollark: (not that I actually have offsite backups, which I should... probably do something about?)
gollark: Offsite backup, and automated backup, is generally a good idea.
gollark: Given that they can't practically have people look over each individual video as it's posted, I wouldn't be surprised if it's some magic inscrutable "AI" thing.
gollark: It's kind of sad that the sort of videos people make is shaped a lot by the whims of some magic ad-revenue-optimization algorithm.
