Vidme has shut down
🕑 Added 2017-12-09 11:27:57 +0000 UTC All videos previously uploaded to Vidme are gone, and I will need to find a new hosting site for Patreon content for 2018.Comments

Thats what one youtuber I follow does. He uploads them as unlisted to show off links early on twitter, then lists them publically after a while. they show up as a new upload to those subscribed too him, so if Lily does this with her videos, then people will still be n otified when it finally goes public.

There is Dailymotion as an alternative you might want to look at to see if it's a viable hosting platform. *looking at the upload page right now as I type* There's no limit on file size or duration, they support up to 2160p/4K, all common video formats and framerates of 24/48, 25/50 or 30/60 fps (though they label it as IPS for images instead of frames). I've also checked the obvious areas of the site to see if there's any bandwidth usage limits and have found no evidence of that sort of limits.
Ok didn't know that

Vimeo is absurdly expensive for very little gain. Their free package is 500mb a week with 25GB a year. Unless I make Patreon-posted videos 360p I won't be able to remain under that. I produce, on average, 2TB of video footage a year. And in order for early videos for Patrons to remain 1080p, I would have to take their $55USD/mo ($70CAD) plan and I can't afford that.
Have you tried vimeo? I know someone who uses this site for his patreon videos.
