Cloud storage services like Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft OneDrive allow you to upload videos and share access links with others.

These services often offer ample storage space and allow for the easy sharing of large video files.

You can set permissions on the links, such as view-only or edit access, and recipients can access the videos directly from the cloud storage service.
