Native Video is coming to Reddit
Reddit announced that the platform will start allowing users to upload videos.
Here’s the announcement: Reddit is home to more than 100,000 of the internet’s most passionate and engaged communities, and we want to give all of them the best tools to express themselves and engage in deeper conversations. That’s why we’re excited to announce the extended rollout of Reddit video beta, which makes it easier than ever for redditors to capture, upload, and share videos and gifs with all their favorite communities.
So what is Reddit video hosting? Here’s everything you need to know: You can record video within the official Reddit apps or select a pre-recorded video from your gallery and upload it to Reddit. On desktop, you can select a video from your files to upload. Allowed video file types are MP4 and MOV, with a maximum length of 15 minutes. You can convert uploaded videos into MP4 gifs with our native gif converter. On the mobile apps, you can trim uploaded videos and gifs to just the section you want to feature. Best of all, you can watch Reddit video while you read comments and engage in conversation.
