I’m creating a special video for my parents’ anniversary and want to share it privately. I don’t want anyone to see ads before, during or right after it. I’m not monetizing it and don’t care about viewer metrics.

Right now I’m trying to decide between subscribing to Vimeo or just placing the file in my Google Drive and sharing out the link.

The file won’t exceed 5GB.

Would paying for a service like Vimeo really be worth it when I could just share out the file for free?

Would appreciate any suggestions or recommendations from content creators.
