    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?

        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 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
