Would be interesting if Liberapay could somehow be built into PeerTube. So you simply click the “Support” button and it asks how much and then another click. Done. The rest is handled by Liberapay, which have been set up earlier.

There’s these guys: https://peertube.wtf/c/theschumanshow@displayeurope.video

Never watched any of their videos though.

https://european-alternatives.eu/category/managed-dns-providers I just don’t think they are free like Cloudflare.

You are thinking about channel membership, right? This is something that could also be implemented in PeerTube, either by Framasoft themselves (devs of PeerTube) or as a plugin by anyone.

You mentioned LTT. They have their own video platform. It would have been cool if they had actually used PeerTube and build upon that instead of creating yet another “walled” video platform.

PeerTube scales by increasing the amount of instances available. But you are pretty much correct. The two things that’s expensive is: Storage and transcoding. The biggest expense is storage. It gets more and more expensive as videos is uploaded. Transcoding can become more expensive, if you have to keep up with new videos getting added all the time.

I would like to see individual content creators create their own PeerTube servers and thereby serving their content to the rest of the PeerTube servers and the Fediverse. I imagine a lot of content creators keep some kind of backup of their videos, so why not attach a PeerTube server to it? PeerTube allows you to keep the original file.

Regarding financial incentive, the “only” thing creators would miss out on, on Peertube is ad revenue. If we disregard the low amount of viewers on PeerTube compared to YouTube, a creator can still use sponsors, patreon, donations, affiliate links etc. on their videos.

It uses P2P when multiple users is watching the same video. A PeerTube server can also mirror another PeerTube server’s videos and function as a peer.

You can see it this screenshot, that I’ve downloaded most of the video data from other peers.

PeerTube is build on ActivityPub, just like Lemmy. Right now federation is broken between Lemmy and PeerTube. When it’s fixed, you’ll be able to subscribe to PeerTube channels from here and comment as well.

Take a look at the pinned post at !peertube@lemmy.wtf and also check out PeerTube.wtf/home for a list as well.

There’s plenty of channels to follow, but obviously not the same amount of content like on YouTube.

Veronica Explains is on PeerTube! https://peertube.wtf/a/vkc@tinkerbetter.tube/video-channels

Maybe some day…

Awesome. This is what I thought Friendica was capable of, but looking forward to see it on Pixelfed.

Nextcloud Talk?

No, but you could cross post the video to this community. However, federation with PeerTube is currently broken.

Where and when did you experience issues with PeerTube videos? It really comes down to the PeerTube provider if their bandwidth can handle it.

I know you said a none-YouTube-ish place, but PeerTube videos play directly on Lemmy.

Makertube.net is for artists.

Even the smallest things can make a difference.

PeerTube can be rather fragmented. Most PeerTube instances don’t federate with much. That’s why I made that pinned post in !peertube@lemmy.wtf to help people choose a proper instance.

I disagree. You can find plenty of content creators on PeerTube. Checkout the pinned post in !peertube@lemmy.wtf.

Let’s hope they also use some of the money saved to support the development of LibreOffice.

Coca Cola Zero is awful. Most people I know, that drink sugar free, drink Pepsi Max.
