Where can I archive my past video content? (and get paid hopefully) (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I’m in the process of divorcing google so YT is a HARD no for me. Google had demonetized my friend’s viral video (close to a decade ago) of his 5 1/4" floppy drives playing toccata & fugue in d minor over MIDI and it left a FOWL taste in my mouth. Most of my videos are 45-90 minutes in length. Night time videos are 2.5~gb. My day time videos are 8-10~gb. I’m currently looking at playeur vs odesee but playeur has a much lower file limit. I’d like to do higher quality videos but it looks like I’ll be limited to 720p content even though the original is in 1080p. I am looking to monetize my content as well. What platforms do I have available in this day and now?

Monitization isn't a 'hard requirement', just a very icing on the cake. The content is really for others' enjoyment. I don't need to be recording said content. I was asked by someone, "Do you record/stream this? People would be interested in watching!" and at that point I wasn't recording but I decided to start. I'm currently just hovering around 123 interested individuals and/or botnet operators following me. Monitization doesn't have to be through the video being viewed on said hosted platform, any donations into my wallet address or PayPal address (which I'm trying to figure out how to set up to receive funds while not doxing me)
