  Oh man, I checked out Peertube and it’s amazing! Obviously overkill for my needs, but it seems like a really good platform (and it’s from France, yay!).

  Only worry I have, will my instance “mirror” other I stances? I’m confident sharing videos because I know they won’t be looked at very much, but with a sort of decentralized cache system it could be costly (in bandwidth).

    Peertube won’t mirror any content from other instances and it won’t even list any if you don’t federate with any servers. Then it’s just your little bobble with your videos where people can play them on the site.

      Okaay yeah that seems completely obvious when you think about it. I was a tee worried you’d have to like block everything everything :-)
