I need to host about 30 Gb of video, light traffic, but may need to upgrade in a year if things go well.

Self hosting isn’t really an option. I don’t want to deal with the security issues of keeping the hosted stuff separate from my home network.

I’d rather avoid AWS/Google, etc and give my money to a smaller company instead even if its a couple of bucks extra.

I’m also looking for a .family domain if anyone knows some good registrars.

It’s been about 20 years since I’ve hosted a website, and the only thing I can remember is don’t use GoDaddy.

    I’ve been pretty impressed with Piwigo for image (and video) albums. Actively developed. Customizable. User friendly. Easy to install (similar to Wordpress install).

      I’m definitely going to keep that one in mind - it looks a lot more straightforward than Pixelfed. For now, Cloudron only lets me install 2 aps on their free plan. Installing another would more than double my hosting costs.

      I guess I’ll see how far I can get with Wordpress before I have to look at another option. Thanks for all the help!
