    I'm trying to send over 130 pictures and two videos totaling 10 minutes that I took on my phone to someone. They won't send via e-mail, does anyone know what I can use?

    How are you trying to email them? I think you probably will run into issues trying to send a ton all at once despite the platform.

    Try WeTransfer. A website where you can send up to 2gb free. You might have to split it into two, pics and video but give it a try.

    When I am sending a lot of photos I use GIMP to resize them, you can lower the resolution (which is what happens any time you post photos to social media sites anyway) fairly easily. Another option is a compression program, there are several programs available to do it.

    Here is a wikihow article on compressing files.

    Use Telegram messenger.
    Don't send them one by one. Compress them into 1 or a few files then send them.

    Upload them to a Google Drive folder, Flikr album, or some other online store, and just share the link so they can download them. They might have to do a bit more work, but they'll be full resolution and they can only download the ones they want. If you normally use that resource, you will also have a backup for yourself.
