I've kind of wondered what the value proposition is of Loom as a business. On mac I get native screen recording and can just toss the video straight into any chat app or any video hosting platform. If you want to build a video hosting platform though, that's a different level of commitment.

What kind of chat app or video hosting platform did you use?

I've often encountered errors like: "You file is too powerful" - Discord, when trying to share my recording.

No specific errors come to mind for me, only in some cases files that are too large according to whatever the subscription is, or maaybe encoding on their end. Jira, Slack, Google chat, not sure about teams.
