Easier said than done. Reason after all these years it still hasn’t been addressed.

I really don’t think it is.

As an engineer with almost 2 decades of experience… It is.

True.
Peertube has been hamstrung by a very poorly-made design decision early on.
It’s my understanding that peertube copies all of the content from hosts it federates with. That’s a huge waste of storage and the main reason why most peertube instances hardly federate with anything.
Instead, peertube developers should implement the option for servers to duplicate data, or simply load the data through a link to a server that hosts it.
It’s still young and they’ve done a pretty good job with everything except this fundamental flaw. Hopefully if enough people hear about this idea and promote it, we can see it implemented and then Peertube can really take off.

That’s optional.
lumony@lemmings.world 3 weeks ago
I don’t think that’s true.
It’s my understanding that by federating, you are duplicating the data from the servers you federate with on your own.

The server itself has the option to turn that off or on. And most dont turn that on. Its off by default.
