Streaming update (Patreon)

Yeesh, what a pain.

I really appreciate your patience as I sift through the pain that is streaming integration with Patreon.  I wish Patreon had its own video hosting service, but sadly, it doesn't have what I'm looking for.  For a time, I thought IceDrive could supply me what I need and allow folks access to our library, but Patreon's third party URL authenticator stopped supporting it.  And several of you noticed this when my posts were coming up without links or files.

That's not a great user experience, so I needed to find something compatible with Patreon.  Youtube and Google Drive are possible options, but neither allow sexual content.  And our stuff is pretty borderline.  I've dealt with Google before I retired, and they are not effective communicators on how they enforcing their guidelines.  They will often cancel first and talk later.  So I figured going with either of those two options was pretty risky.

Dropbox is another popular provider, but they don't allow streaming of videos with their service, so that's kind of a bummer.  I uploaded some test videos today, and they came up as gibberish on the page.

I am trying out Streamable right now, and they look like they actually might work.  The streaming seems to work well.  I updated all the Chesh and Makenna videos on the site so they should be streaming now. 

Let me know if you have any problems.  If not, I want to convert our library over to that platform so we have some consistency.
