Comment on If you can afford it, PeerTube is having a fundraiser for its mobile app

I mean, that’s just poor archiving practices. There’s no reason you shouldn’t keep originals stored and backed up locally. You shouldn’t depend on someone else to archive that for you.

Sure, you can send me a nas with drives and another network switch, wiring, and pay for labor to run it, while setting it up to work with my hardware and firewall. I have no interest in these projects to support something maybe useful to you but that I already know. I’d rather just do what I do now and keep it to myself. I’m physically disabled with no meaningful income. Gatekeep your hobby and financial position all you’d like, but **** your random prejudiced negative vitriol towards strangers.

Wow. That was needlessly antagonistic. I don’t know your situation but what’s happening is that you’re pawning off these costs to other people. PeerTube is just not going to foot that bill for you, so you have unrealistic expectations.
Also most of that stuff is unnecessary, you can simply get a DAS box and connect it to your local machine as a hard drive.
