I'm not sure what it takes but TILVids doesn't seem to have a problem loading videos...

You might not get 4k but is that really important?

TILVids has orders of magnitude less usage than YouTube, both in terms of storage and bandwidth.

Generally speaking you can expect to hit one bottleneck or another whenever you grow one order of magnitude, and fixing these becomes harder each time.

You're not wrong but again, does that really matter? I can watch videos and they look just as good to my eye as they do on YT.

That depends on what you want. Folks where talking about a YouTube replacement. If TILVids is that for you right now and you don't expect more content there then it's all good.
