I should have saved more of the vids I enjoyed...

It looks like Vimeo has switched its business strategy (apparently their share price collapsed since their IPO?) and now ask very high hosting prices of several thousand dollars from the "top 1% bandwidth users", only the baseline for this percentage is apparently every inactive account without any traffic, if someone whose top video has 815 views is already counted as that, as described in this article here.

I'm not a big vid watcher, and in recent years the vids I have watched I mostly just streamed rather than saving anything (even if it was possible to save without a lot of fiddling when streaming services hinder downloads). I regret that now. Looks like a lot of vids might be about to vanish. :(
