Comments.Text: @Mulvya Thanks for the pointer, it looks interesting. But as far as I can tell, this is for people who are trying to set up their own integrated streaming, and are willing to pay for it. I am looking for something consumer-focused, suitable for a hobbyist: just like YouTube or Vimeo.  If I could find something that is as good in quality as YouTube, I would be very happy.  All Chinese services I tried (Bilibili, Youku, Tudou) look obviously worse than YouTube, not only for a trained eye, but for just about anyone looking at them.

  For most of the world, YouTube provides decent quality video hosting, and for those who want higher quality, there is Vimeo.
  
  Unfortunately, practically all non-Chinese video hosting services are [blocked](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Firewall) [in China](https://www.comparitech.com/privacy-security-tools/blockedinchina/), and all Chinese ones I tried compress videos to abysmal quality (in addition to watermarking it with their own name).
  
  Are there any high-quality video hosting services that are accessible from China?
