[@AureliusTjin]

Thanks as always

[@abaan_holix]

Helpful ❤🎉

[@evaguo1]

Thank you, Aurelius! Super helpful and thank you for not speaking like you don't breathe (like a lot of RUclipsrs who, apparently, don't need to breathe and speak at 100000 words per second). I'm particularly curious about which hosting platforms to use. If you or anyone reading this has updates, please let me know. Can one just not use a platform? If yes, how would that work? Thanks!!

[@kamalgill3815]

Thank you Aurelus this is very helpful. I love watching your videos and you provide valuable information. I hope I can get to this level one day lol. I am creating a gut health program. And I have two more courses in the works.

[@dikeobi6051]

Great piece @Aurelius! My question - can these videos with the effects created on the course platforms be downloaded and used on other learning management portals? thanks
