How do you post music to lemmy ? You can post images and video files with music tracks, but what about simple.mp3? (lemmy.ml)

Use torrents, lemmy is not meant to be a file sharing service. We can't afford the hosting costs for video and music.

I disagree, I am sorry, I really do. This MUST be supported.

1 terabyte of storage costs 5$ per month, 3 terabyte of data costs 3$ per month. You can host my 800kilobyte music file the same way you can host my 800kilobyte image and my 800kilobyte video It cannot be hosted elsewhere as page load means cognitive break from the original message, it ruins the message.

paywall the feature I don't mind I will pay it forward

pict-rs supports video, search these terms

[media.video]
allow_audio = false 
PICTRS__MEDIA__VIDEO__ALLOW_AUDIO = true

Music is just a video file without a video track and video already works !

It's all of big that seemingly forgot how sound files work. I tried uploading a sound file to Facebook. Wouldn't work. They wanted a mp4 with a video track.
