What's the Fediverse YouTube? ooof. that's a tough nut.

No one understands the astronomical bandwidth, CPU/GPU intensive calcs, and data storage necessities required to do anything close to what YouTube currently does.

There is no way under this warm sun that a fediverse version of YouTube will ever be feasible, unless someone like literally yourself is willing to pay extraordinary high amounts of money for all the required infrastructure and daily maintenance to run it.

What part of "bittorrent" do you not understand? I am really getting fucking sick and tired of people like you posting this bullshit FUD.

PeerTube uses WebTorrent protocol and it still doesn't do well with the same quantity of bandwidth demands.

Post your own self-hosted PeerTube instance for us all to use then, let's see who's correct. Otherwise provide a solution or shut the fuck up.
