Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership
k0e3@lemmy.ca 20 hours agoOh I didn’t know that was the case. I’ve only really started using it, but I think peertube.wtf hosts done for you. I just started a new account with fedimovie today — because I can’t seem to access wtf for some reason — and I think it said on their sign up page that they have 100gb for me to use.
So, when you say self-host, would I have to have an instance of Peertube myself, or can I have an account with an instance and host just the videos?

My experience is that basically, if you actually want to do anything meaningful with video, you need to host your own instance, because no one wants to be beholden to the bandwidth, especially if it gets any uptake. In which case, obviously, you're on your own for the costs. The only way I can see PeerTube working is if a few of the medium size YouTubers & Twitch streamers with decent monthly Patreon takes band together and fund it that way.
