No.

But mainly because content creators are on YouTube to get audience and a small profit. The technology is fine otherwise.

This is an interesting economics problem. How can a p2p FOSS alternative compete with advertising revenue? The YouTube creators don't even get most of the money, so it wouldn't need to be perfect to be better.

Yeah I think it's doable since most of the revenues are through sponsorship and you can evaluate the audience with likes and subscriptions

Is PeerTube separate from the rest of the fediverse? I'm on Lemmy and get everything from what's in the OP image except the video things.
