481 - A new video hosting solution for WordPress users and Vimeo refugees
Show notes
The conversation focused on Livid, a newly launched video hosting platform positioned as a strong alternative to Vimeo, especially for users facing steep price increases following Vimeo’s acquisition by Bending Spoons. A key theme that emerged was Livid’s streamlined migration tools, including a free exporter and a robust WordPress plugin, making it easy to transfer and replace Vimeo content. The discussion explored customisable player options, flexible privacy controls, showcases for grouping content, and competitive bandwidth and storage pricing. Assurance of stable backing and infrastructure rounded out the deep dive into Livid’s value for the WordPress and wider web community.
