Hosting and storage costs, few can afford to be an alternative to an absolutely gigantic video storage platform that costs obscene money to maintain.

    Sure, a service that manages an infinitely smaller amount of content and complexity. It is a situational tool, hardly a YouTube killer... the banner presented on the homepage professes that it's expensive to run and please donate.

    https://fediverse.party/en/peertube/ << before you complain understand the technology behind. Everyone can basically provide a instance and it's decentral. As more people participate / as more instances are provide as better for all and as cheaper. If you really want to step away from services like youtube and want to have it sustainable (aka not depending on business) than it's your best choice. If you just want someone else to have the saying and replace one company with another good luck.
