high costs server side, poor quality of the videos, poor-ish internet connections, not enough powerful cell phones, etc. They were ahead of time. They achieved a decent success in the US but not much outside of it because of much of the reasons listed above.

I know peertube already exists, but I wonder if a federated app specifically for short videos (to reduce data storage costs) could find some success?

would probably also need to use some intense video compression technology before upload to further reduce file sizes

There actually is one in development right now! It's called Goldfish. It's in pre-alpha right now, but it's getting somewhere
