I made a post earlier about Owncast. Long story short, I have to wait 48 hours to try it. In the meantime I decided to look into PeerTube livestreaming and I was astounded by how good it actually is.

Here are 30 mins of smooth livestreaming on Hardlimit. Simply amazing performance in game and on video. I just wish H265 encoding was supported, then it would be an endgame for me.

Seriously, more people need to start livestreaming on Peertube and of course donate to their instances. It's worth your time and your money far more than a Youtube Premium sub which, in the future, will also contain ads 100%.

PeerTube is the future of video content.

I wish Peertube would be succesful, but i don't really see it.

  • I have searched for a gaming focused server in the past and haven't found one. Seem you were more sucesful than me. But i think finding the best server for youself is kind of harder on peertube
  • i don't really see, how peertube server are able to solve the issue, that peertube server need way bigger memory space than lemmy or mastodon. How would they able to fund this in a larger scale?

Yes that is the big issue with this video platforms. Video streaming is a demanding task. And I can't even imagine how much storage would we need to have something remotely similar to YouTube. Google was able to run YouTube because it had free money coming in , now the funds are drying up so more ads coming their way.
