Ah, but you are already using nostr.build without realizing it. 😉
Your last post with a video on it was uploaded to nostr.build via whatever client you used:

MORE US MILITARY ARRIVES AT GUANTANAMO: WHITE HOUSE
Trump's executive order directed the Migrant Operations Center at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay to expand to full capacity (30,000 detainees).
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem drew parallels to the CIA torture prison where an overwhelming number of detainees at GITMO were found to be innocent:
“There might be some resources that could be established for the worst of the worst at Guantanamo Bay..."

Remember, clients are just glorified front-ends displaying data that is stored somewhere else entirely. Notes are stored on relays, but media such as photos and videos needs to be stored somewhere too. The client itself doesn't store it. They rely on media hosting services like nostr.build to host your media.
Nostr.build is the most common one, because it has been around the longest, but there are others. Additionally, Blossom servers are becoming a more and more popular way to host media, as it helps make media storage more decentralized.
I run my own Blossom server, for instance. Which means I am hosting my own photos and screenshots. But, if my server goes down, that media won't be accessible either. So there are tradeoffs.
Then again. On Blossom, media is content addressable, so if I have my uploads mirrored to other Blossom servers, clients can

Okay, well if I can't upload videos directly to clients from my hard drive, I guess I would need the most simple, user-friendly solution, being that I have very little tech skills as well as very little time, energy, and resources, personally.

It is. Mostly. You are downloading them from wherever it is you are getting the video, then you are using a client to upload them to whatever hosting service they default to. Looking at your history, it has been nostr.built that they are defaulting to.
If you don't have a paid account with them, there are file size limits, though. They recently increased the max file size for users of their free service to 21MB, but I am unsure whether they have a daily/weekly/monthly limit as well. The site doesn't say.
Also @The Fishcake🐶🐾 & 763 others it looks like the About page still needs to be updated with the new file size limit:

That's why you should use poster.place , uploads to a fast CDN powered by Blossom and Minio

Is there a limit to the number of short videos that can be uploaded each day?
