I'm trying it out.

I've probably hit your issue with Vimeo, though: Vimeo is 
impractical unless you pay them (~50€/year). With a free account 
you can only upload 1 HD video / week. I guess you pay for what 
you get with no ads.

I'm going to upload one video anyway just to test it.

My point, however, is that you need the video to be accessible 
before you post it somewhere to Reddit. Archive.org is *not* 
accessible, it's bandwidth is way too limited. You need to have 
it on Vimeo, or YouTube, or whatever *before* you post it. 
Dicebot uploading it an hour later and posting it in a comment 
that may or may not get noticed (or me uploading it a day later) 
is not going to help.
