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?

People will at some point need to realize that they have to donate and not pay a compulsory fee for products that are worth the money. It may not be apparent now but this is where the world is heading. When Youtube Premium also starts having ads and there's a higher tier for no ads then things will start moving and fast.

I don't believe you are right with that. If popular websites have more ads, we just see more ad blocker. I donate for my Mastodon and Lemmy server, but the vast majority of people will never pay for something like peertube, i just don't believe that.

I'm not sure how ad blocking is going to work once more and more ads are delivered via the domains you don't want to block.
