If someone uploads a photo or video, the server hosts it and sends to everyone.

Expensive

Isn't that how it's supposed to work? What's the alternate model?

I think they meant each server hosts the same files, not just the home server.

Of give each user like 50mb of space then make them use a link for God's sake

Can you choose to host it without video and limited image size?

You can limit upload size.
