Say I want to use Peertube to preserve videos forever, focus on resilience. (lemmy.ml)

How should I do this?

I understand not all videos get mirrored.

Can I create accounts on multiple instances and prompt them to mirror each other? What instances should I focus on?

Run your own server with backups.

Is this really the only reason people use Peertube?

What do you want to to do exactly? Archive videos?

I didn't wanted to assume that you want someone else to pay for your storage, electricity , maintenance of a server with unlimited storage space. You go and pay for your own buddy , nothing in this life is free.

You want someone else to pay for the disk space and network availability for your videos?

The answer is going to depend on where the videos are coming from.

Are these videos (you want to mirror) —

  • on YouTube?,
  • on the threadiverse somewhere — on a Lemmy or Kbin server?,
  • somewhere else?
