Nice, but the platform we need more is Peertube
PeerTube is great too
It never seems to load, is my hardened browser breaking peering ? What exactly needs to be whitelisted ?
I know it sounds like capitalist crep, but Peertube needs a solid form of monitization (I think).
Creating videos is expensive and hosting videos is expensive. Without a source of income for creators it cannot survive.
It's more market anarchism than capitalism IMO. The factors of production here are controlled 100% by its users, not whoever last bought the whole thing.
I'm going to try setting up an instance but one issue with it that I see is that instance owners will be the only permitted uploaders for most instances since storage and bandwidth is a huge issue when it comes to video hosting platforms.
