@shekinahcancook@babka.social @mcc The software is there, but how many people have the *hardware* to install it on? And the bandwidth to deliver after the "initial boom" of a video ends up dying down (where PT's use of WebTorrent would work the best) Video hosting is substantially more expensive than any other part of the fediverse. Throwing PeerTube around without understanding this is gonna end up with nothing but a lot of disappointed F(L)OSS advocates. **EDIT:** Oh, and also transcoding hardware. Good luck to anyone who attempts to transcode VP9 or god forbid AV1 on a VPS's CPU.
