Partially because I want the videos associated with an account so they can browsed that way, but the big reason is for comments. Voat uses a login system, reddit does, youtube, giphy, vid.me.

I guess what shocks people is I put the upload button right there so people see the login screen a lot faster on my site than on others. That and youtube that also has a upload button aswell everyone already has an account for because it connects to the universal google account. That's the shit I'm done with. You really can make a nearly unlimited number of acounts including throwaways.

Note: still working on browsing videos by uploader

Yea its no problem making a throwaway I just wondered if there a technical or legal reason why image hosts allowed upload without login and video hosts don't generally. Thanks for the answer.
