Around 2008-2010, the studio I worked for uploaded our videos to Vimeo because RUclips had a 10-15 minute length limit and most of our videos, like conference sessions, were longer. Also Vimeo image quality and resolution were much better and we could customize the player. But once RUclips removed the length limit and improved the quality, we stopped uploading to Vimeo. It was too expensive and weekly upload limits were too low.
Mark my words RUclips will make a upload limit soon. I know they already have a daily upload limit but they’ll have to make one for free accounts. Maybe only like 1K videos until you pay for more storage or something.

Such a shame that Vimeo pretty much became the Kmart of RUclips.

RUclips says it’s profitable but the amount of viewers leaving I don’t know how long they can be profitable
doubt they are in trouble. TikTok was their most formidable challenger, but they adapted. unless hardware changes the way we consume videos youtube will be around
For music, I thought Vimeo was a more popular platform than RUclips (or at least that is how it used to be) I thought that was it's main purpose. Once and while I still see some people post there content on Vimeo, rather then RUclips. So I was always wondering why that was.
I was in college earning my Integrated New Media Studies degree and it required a plethora of video production classes which was expected. One of my instructors was such a snob and had unorthodox requirements to post material online using "popular" sites then post those links on the school's server. This was redundant because we could've easily embedded the videos on a certain page for our class but he was so stubborn. The hosting site was Vimeo. It must've been 2010 and we didn't like it much. Unless we paid for the service, the website would take its sweet ass time to actually process our uploads up to several hours. Why not RUclips? Who the hell knows. He also had us make a Twitter profile to post the same links, too, for.... MORE redundancy. If not, points were deducted. At this point Twitter still had its 140(?) character limit. Shortly after knowing I didn't need that jerk anymore for classes I shut it down. My Vimeo account is up and haven't been there for near a decade. It's just a "blah" website.
the original content could have worked for Vimeo if they just allowed creators to create said original content so it could be a platform where indie filmmakers could create a portfolio of work from movies and TV style shows
RUclips has increased the number of adds to force us all into a subscription. That could be the next pluspoint for Vimeo. Also the quality of videos is high for Vimeo, always been.
Vimeo should capitalize on how bad things are on YT, drop the ridiculous fees, bring in ads, be less restrictive than YT, profit People are looking for an alternative to YT, someone just needs to step up and actually compete
Literally RUclips can't kill is porn streaming / video sites, alternate video sites like Dailymotion, Vimeo, Youku, Nicovideos and more are mostly dead when RUclips extends its coverage to more copyrighted materials, covering more niche markets in other countries, lowering the barrier for the people using it, even without Premium subscription people are still able to watch HD videos, tons of shorts videos that turn people into using YT instead of former platforms, also YT's economy scale attracts more streamers into YT, not other platforms even Twitch.
Youku and Nicovideo are somewhat still popular in Japan, probably because those 2 sites are region locked. But as Japan continue to lose its population and the competition from other big companies (Google, META, X) continues to strengthen quickly, those sites could be dragged into their final resting place in the near future because of rapidly declining userbases
Nothing significantly different. They should have invested into providing software to help people create shows - Something like OST. They should have focused to take the content makers - A go-to place to create your online shows
It feels weird hearing someone compare Vimeo to RUclips. They are very different in my eyes. RUclips is (mostly) home made content with a shit-ton of ads because creators don't pay (the consumers pay). Vimeo is (mostly) pro content and is primarily aimed at creators that pay to upload their work.
They also got woke, censored people, and didn't allow people to do the same as youtube. They used to be SEO friendly, but they got rid of that feature. They just did everything wrong, and they deserve the situation they're in.
I’m an old and to me, OG comes from the term “Original Gangster” but these days has just been transformed to mean “Original” or sort of like “the old school original”. At least for me, it was originally popularized by hip-hop in the 80s and 90s.

Nothing significantly different.
They should have invested into providing software to help people create shows - Something like OST. They should have focused to take the content makers - A go-to place to create your online shows
I opened vimeo & I found no video, other than demo vids
Hm.....i think i only used that to watch pirated anime that people posted as secondary links.
I liked vimeo. Lots of independent filmmakers.
Next Dailymotion?
The accidental impact College Humor has had.
Vimeo once took down some gaming montage videos I made and gave no reason. They dug their own grave not allowing content of all sorts
It feels weird hearing someone compare Vimeo to RUclips. They are very different in my eyes. RUclips is (mostly) home made content with a shit-ton of ads because creators don't pay (the consumers pay). Vimeo is (mostly) pro content and is primarily aimed at creators that pay to upload their work.
Patreon when Vimeo shutsdown
Imagine having a video streaming site called Vi-ME-o and engaging in even worse censorship than youtube. What an absolute joke.
They also got woke, censored people, and didn't allow people to do the same as youtube. They used to be SEO friendly, but they got rid of that feature. They just did everything wrong, and they deserve the situation they're in.
I remember when Vimeo had no censorship while RUclips had it in full swing. But I guess that was before that woman was appointed CEO.
Can you do a video about vevo
Yeah , that was a thing
Do dailymotion next. ❤
You should do a video about vine.
Ashley who?
ScottManFun from Vimeo:
It's weird watching this guy talk with such a massively over processed voice.

What is "OG"? I am getting really tired of videos where people just throw in acronyms without explanation. Stop it.
I’m an old and to me, OG comes from the term “Original Gangster” but these days has just been transformed to mean “Original” or sort of like “the old school original”.
At least for me, it was originally popularized by hip-hop in the 80s and 90s.
@EdherJr How does that even work? 🙄
That's such an old acronym. Are you 100 years old? 😂
@@ElizabethUkeh 59. What's next, I don't know "bruh"? 🤣
Wait Vimeo still exists
only once in my life used Vimeo
You're misreading the quote that's on screen...
What's an OG?
NO hard feelings! i had only bad experience with them anyways
Maybe Apple should have bought Vimeo.
I have never used this for long, I always hated it. My college professor tried to force me to upload my animations on here, and I fucking refused lmao. It's always been so ugly and dated. Only film and animation people seem to use it, and as one of those people I have no idea why.
Female leaders do this to any company.
Vimeo = Hydrox
RUclips = Oreo
It is very different business model than youtube.
Bro idk why but I’ve been watching less of ur vids nvm I do know why can you do more vids abt chatgpt or Samsung ai bc I just don’t really wanna watch the random companies and there stories ig
Forgot Veoh :D
Dailymotion be like:
Also great vid tho
Elon musk should buy one of these platforms and have all his alt right friends on there
I see you've never listened to anything he's ever said.
@@ericvulgate7091 Do you mean the crying about free speech until someone makes fun of him, or him LARPing as Tony Stark while the people he hires are the actual brains and he makes terrible sink jokes that even a dad would find stupid?
Eh, Rumble and BitChute already exist for that
Good video. But hard to understand this guy's accent
For me i feel like vimeo is the site teachers use to show pshe gay stuff to the class
That's all that's on there lmao.
So they take G-pay or real money 😂

Don’t shave your face no more thanks

Everything is "OG" nowadays. It's buzz word nowadays
