There is one thing that is vital that is missing from peertube. Effective monetization.

By watching on peertube I am a drain on resources. A net negative. I'd happily pay to offset those costs and more, but I want it to be shared amongst multiple creators and hosters.

I don't want to just support one, I want to support most of the network for the hosting and bandwidth, and a certain amount divided amongst the creators I watch.

If PeerTube introduces some sort of payment / monetization solution, it might get more creators as well. Without it I can't see it growing fast enough to compete with YouTube in the near future.

Well.. Sooner or later the costs of Full HD compressed video will be negligible for hosting and bandwidth, so that might be when YouTube gets a real challenge. So I guess we'll see

I remember the pre-Youtube internet where we created content because it was fun or educational, not because we needed money for the task of doing so.

Paying for server costs and maintaining them, sure. MetaFilter has a good system for that, they're effectively a non-profit and have a donation structure and paid admins and moderators. The rest of the people on the site, they just make good content for the sake of making good content, not because they feel the need to be paid for their time doing it.

God I miss the pre-Youtube era. "Content creators" looking for a payday via advertising are a fucking cancer.

They don’t want proof that what’s going to be happening soon, was ever mortally objectionable.

Why even bother with a hate speech policy? Oh, right, money.

A real alternative to YouTube would be so good right now.
