Works well with imgur gifs to convert them to mp4, I needed video controls on some of my longer gifs
I've.. tried to use Streamable for years. It has some odd bandwidth issues, where you'll apparently be being blocked or throttled whenever trying to view clips on the website, even when they're your own.
It's a shame because it's a beautiful site, really. You simply upload a clip, it gets processed, you get a link, no questions asked. There's no sign of all the extraneous information you can add when submitting a video to YouTube. Streamable's minimalism is its strongest point.
But when the video viewing experience itself is so poor (and judging by reddit I'm certainly not the only one), I'm constantly on the lookout for a solid alternatives. To give you a sense of how much I want to be able to use Streamable properly, I've used subdomain scanners to get the hostnames and IPs of alternative CDNs and used NextDNS' URL rewrites and hosts file entries to force Streamable to let me use a different CDN. It worked for a few months..
Streamable's bread and butter is minimalism, and it does well. But the meat and potatoes of the site is still video viewing, and that, it does a particularly poor job.

A very straightforward and easy to use streaming service.
Had no issues since i'm using it (0.5y+), easy sharing, controlled privacy.
it basically has all the features I need for my video hosting service
I uploaded a 1440p video and they converted it to 696p, not even HD. Odd choice for a resolution and no idea what are they thinking. It's so lo quality I can't read any text in the video
Have used Streamable for a little while on my renddder.com platform for hosting 3D animations. I love their pricing, the customer service has been very responsive and helpful, adding/editing/managing videos is super easy. Lots of respect for their UI designer and for whoever came up with their name.
It ceased to provide a possibility to upload and share files without signing up, so it suddenly lost its entire value to me.
Unfortunately the free account service is now limited to 720@60fps (was 1080p@60). Bad choice. They should have reduced stream size/video length instead for free accounts IMHO.
No they should just cap quality imo
