Warnings for creating, embedding and using h5p.org content

Dear h5p-team,

as I've read the warning for creating, embedding and using h5p.org contents many times, I am no longer

sure how "safe" it is to create content and to embed it in, e.g. online tutorials that I created.

What I mean is that the warnings says that contents created via h5p.org can disappear or be unabled at any moment,

so that I do noit know whether I can, e.g. recommend h5p.org to colleagues who also want to create contents for their students,

as I may recommend the service to them today and tomorrow their passionately created contents are being unabled.

Please, do not get me wrong, as I fully understand the problem of server limitations and server capacities providing space for

people who pay for these perfect services of h5p, but I would still like to know whether there is a deadline or a certain future point

at which you want to decide to unable or inactivate all the active contents that were created on h5p and that are used 

on numerous websites all around the world. Just to be aware of the level of risk I am taking using h5p.org for my projects in the future.

Thank you very much for answering my request. Again, this question does not intend to be criticism or to complain, it is just a question

that came about talking about h5p with colleagues.

 

Thank you for answering!

Best regards

Hi FaSe,

There are no deadlines nor a certain date. However the H5P core team cannot guarantee that the contents created in H5P.org as well as the website will always work. We've had several instances that the website stopped working because the server cannot handle the load of people using it all at the same time. We unfortunately are not able to provide free hosting, only free software. So I suggest that you instead use the free plugin from H5P.

Thank you very much for your quick reply!

All the best!
