What about venting it into the crawlspace below? We don't have any
insulation between the floor joists down there, and the ground is
bare. The crawlspace is well ventilated (as is our drafty 50+ year
old house).

I ask because to get the vent down and out through an outside wall
will require about 3 90 degree bends along with about 40+ feet of
ducting. My only other alternative is to vent through the roof which
would be 2 90 bends and about 20' of ducting but I've read that it's
not good to vent vertically because the lint will clog easier.

The proper way to do it is to run hard metal pipe out with a cleanout on the
run.
Run it OUT from under or above the home.
Period.

The exhaust from your dryer contains all of the moisture from your wash,
do you want to dump this into your attic?
