content: Yeah, lots of creators simply embed YouTube links, even though minds.com has native hosting. I imagine it's may be  simpler for them if they're juggling between different platforms, and just dipping their toes. I'm not sure what minds.com's  size limitations are, but a lot of the alternatives to YouTube have smaller size limits, so that could be why as well. Video streaming is bandwidth intensive, so free-booting off YouTube's servers for the time being is probably encouraged.
