Description

I tried uploading a video on Personal, which used to be allowed. It failed gracefully, by telling me that it succeeded and invited me to write a post.

There should be a clear text saying that the current plan does not support video uploads, within what's permitted by App Store.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the video upload flow on a Personal plan and inspect how upload failures are handled. Change the failure outcome so unsupported video uploads show clear plan-limit text instead of success and the invitation to write a post, while remaining within App Store requirements.
