How long has PeerTube been out? I was looking at some of the videos and most are a few years old, but mostly skewed towards Peertube-related content or animation (Blender).
Didn’t some big Youtube creators put their stuff on the PT platform, or am I thinking of something else?
I really need to put some stuff on pier tube, I will never upload to Youtube again due to their Draconian policies, and censorship requirements that are now even more strict than cable TV. But I have to support the alternative if I want to catch on
If i remember correctly, big creators went with odyssey.
odyssey
Maybe that’s what I’m thinking of! Yeah, there seems to be far more content that appeals to regular folks there.
It’s a shame that Peertube hasn’t been as successful.
Neither are really that successful tbh. Even if video self-hosting wasn’t problematic due to videos requiring a huge amount of space and therefore very expensive, many people can’t deal with having no recommendation system.
I really hope that they’ve added some algorithms for mirroring. I still want an algorithm to mirror based on user subscriptions, since those are the videos most likely to be watched on one instance and so the most useful ones to mirror…
