Is there a way to put videos on a post? If so how exactly?
The best way is to upload it to another service that specializes in serving videos, like Loops, Pixelfed, etc. and posting a link here. Lemmy servers are volunteer-ran, and streaming content is a rather heavy load in comparison to the mostly textual handling it does.

I’d suggest PeerTube
I knew I was forgetting something important!
It depends on the configuration of the instance. Most larger instances disallow it due to the storage requirements of video files.
Yeah when uploaded the vid worked but not its “unable to load”.
Are using an app to access your instance ?
On voyager you have an icon to upload files, directly on browser I’m not sure
I’m on browser but I can try the app
