I use my cloud account , (which was free to join of course), to hold large files for forum use. I give the link to the file in my forum posts.

If you know nothing about Linux, take some time to get familiarized with these courses.

Pastebin is another option, though just for large text files.

I've found that some forums have a limit on size of compressed file size that can be uploaded Broni, (linux forums are low budget mostly), is why I am just pointing out other off site options.
