How do people post video on their post?? when I drag a video into the typing area, it said "the file you are trying to upload is not authorized"

How big is your video? Each server has a size limit, I think.

It's a mere 8 seconds video (14.7 MB).

It's not the length that matters, it's the size that matters.

I don't know what the limit is on this website. If 14 MB is too big, you can try compressing it to a lower resolution.

That video is actually a gif. Since gifs are generally treated like image files, you can drag and drop them into your forum post like other image files.

It still too big after compressing it. Max size is 6.3MB. I tried sharing a link from google drive, it works

I generally use gifs but if you want...

• sound
• high quality
• larger filesize

...you can also paste an unlisted YouTube video link.
