Description
YouTube deletes what it wants, pushes what it wants, and watches your history. PeerTube flips the model—anyone can run their own video site, all federated together. Videos are distributed peer-to-peer via WebTorrent, so popular content streams smoother the more it's watched, without one host bearing all the cost. From the French nonprofit Framasoft.
Self-host: anyone can run their own video site.
Federation: instances subscribe to each other, content discovered across sites.
P2P delivery: WebTorrent shares bandwidth, smoother the more popular a video.
No algorithm: no recommendation black box, no watch tracking.
