Too much $ to host videos from the sound of it. Too many instances vanish. Strict upload limits means it's more suitable as a gif meme host for your element memes that you don't care about than an actual YouTube alternative.

Anyone else feel similar?

I think the business model where peertube really works looks something like a creator co-op. I think Nebula works under a similar system.

Excellent point, I hadn't thought of this!

Does it make sense to host your own content instead of upload to someone else's?
