Do you have storage for users to use?

Some sites and forums will allow users to upload content like videos and images to the site, which will then be hosted by the site. I know some sites that don't do it, because it takes resources or bandwidth from the site. I'm sure some hosts limit the amount of user storage, but I think it's great when a forum especially, allows users to upload content so they don't have to host it themselves. But I understand if it's a bigger site, it might be a problem letting a bunch of people upload content to their servers.

My communities are hosted with shared hosting, and I have limited diskspace and bandwidth. Therefore, I have not given any options to the users to store video or images, outside the basic requirement of avatar and cover. I do not think I would ever give storage to the users
