@grahamperrin@mastodon.bsd.cafe I have indeed been quite distressed with Youtube for quite some time for many reasons, including its unreliability. While Peertube ostensibly exists to pick-up its use-case (what a nice project), there are a large number of practical limitations to self-hosting on the clearnet that limit its adoption (copyright trolls among them, but the clearnet is also just not friendly to media self-hosting without considerable disposable income). GLITCH should be hosting an instance though, they do own or have license to literally everything in their publications (with considerable amounts having been commissioned by them) and are already hosting their own site with multimedia content anyway (so the basic entry hurdles of hosting aren't applicable here). (I'm willing to cut them some slack with the whole "currently coordinating a global release" thing, though.)
