In this episode of the PublishPress Podcast, I talk with Nic Taylor, co-founder of Livid.com. Nick and his colleagues loved working at StreamYard, until Bending Spoons took over its parent company and they were laid off. They got the team back together to build Livid, a video hosting alternative to Vimeo, which is another Bending Spoons acquisition. We talk about how these acquisitions lead to price hikes, how Livid makes it easy to migrate videos and swap WordPress embeds, how to break into a crowded market, and why they chose real human support over AI bots.
