    Does anyone know an alternative?

    I've already looked around myself but so far
    i only considered YouTube as an alternative

  • @Subpath This may be an option - with a forever free account: https://screenpal.com/screen-recorder

    Thanks for your tip, appreciate it. I'll take a look at it.
    At first glance it looks like a useful alternative to recordit.

    The free screen recordings can even be 15 minutes long.
    With Recordit the maximum was 5 minutes.

    If you just need to record the screen to a video file, macOS allows this using Command+Shift+5 (recent versions) or QuickTime Player (older versions), and for Windows you can do this with OBS Studio (which is free) or possibly with either Snipping Tool (Windows 11, no audio capture) or the XBox Game Bar (only captures one application instead of the entire screen or screen regions).

    Hosting the video files is of course a different matter.

    @fde101, Thank you too
    I have some free Tools for Screen Recording already.

    For Windows Users:

    "ScreentoGif" is a tiny nice little Screenrecorder
    (195 KB 🙂 ) and it have even some editing Feature
    you can save the records as .Gif. No Audio.
    ( also .APN, .Webp, .Avi, .Mov, MP-4 and a few others )

    "ShareX" open source is another Screen Recorder
    "OpenShot" also open source is for Video editing

    I use "Ksnip" free, for Screenhots

    Still look around for a alternative for recordit
    it was not ideal but was hosting the gif recordings

    @syllie Tested ScreenPal with free account - so far so good. It has video archive and comments sections - Test video

    @syllie , @Harry

    I’m also happy with “Screenpal” so far. There is even a small
    video editor integrated

    It also allows saving .mp4 to your desktop and uploading
    .mp4 to your free account

    I did a comparison: A .gif lasting about 2 minutes was
    about 305 MB, the same as .mp4 was only about 5 MB

    so again, thanks for the tip @syllie
