Well, PeerTube exists, but IDK how good it actually is since basically no one uses it. I also think professional content creators aren’t going to like the Fediverse very much since there is significantly less money in it, but for hobbyists it could work. Of all the big social media platforms, video hosting/streaming is the hardest case to replace. It’ll be interesting though. I hear PeerTube works like torrents.
Anyone hoping there will be a mass exodus from YouTube to other–maybe fediverse YouTube alternatives, reminiscent of the Reddit exodus?
Video hosting is way too expensive and complex to be decentralised.
Yea, so who’s hosting the videos and providing the bandwidth?
Yes I hope, but I don’t see it happening. Creators will go where the masses are and where the money is.
