    PeerTube is a decentralized and federated alternative to YouTube. The goal of PeerTube is not to replace YouTube but to offer a viable alternative using the strength of ActivityPub and P2P protocols.

    Being built on ActivityPub means PeerTube is able to be part of a bigger social network, the Fediverse (the Federated Universe). On the other hand, P2P technologies help PeerTube to solve the issue of money, inbound with all streaming platform : With PeerTube, you don't need to have a lot of bandwidth available on your server to host a PeerTube platform because all users (which didn't disable the feature) watching a video on PeerTube will be able to share this same video to other viewers.

    If you are curious about PeerTube, I can't recommend you enough to check the official website (https://joinpeertube.org) to learn more about the project. If after that you want to try to use PeerTube as a content creator, you can try to find a platform available there to register or host yourself your own PeerTube platform on your own server.

    The development of PeerTube is actually sponsored by Framasoft (https://framasoft.org), a french non-for-profit popular educational organization, a group of friends convinced that an emancipating digital world is possible, convinced that it will arise through actual actions on real world and online with and for you!

    Framasoft is also involved in the development of Mobilizon, a decentralized and federated alternative to Facebook Events and Meetup.

    If you're looking for YouTube alternatives, you might be interested in PeerTube. PeerTube is to YouTube what Mastodon is to Twitter. (Plus PeerTube and Mastodon use the same federation technology. You can follow PeerTube accounts from inside Mastodon and vice versa.)

    Their source code is on Github, though took a min to find.

    I'm still going through it, but I suspect so far they are transcoding via HLS and then streaming it out over the p2p connection.

    > YouTube (and other mainstream providers) solves user stories. The user story is "I want to find and watch interesting videos" and they nail it.

    You miss another user story: IT department wants to self host a video distributing platform on their intranet and users need to embed video in intranet CMS (blogs, wikis, etc.) and they will watch those videos at home, at the office and in between places.

    Thinking audience and monetization, basically it's thinking "youtube clone", and that narrows outlooks on what peertube brings to the table.

    > The user story for this, judging by their homepage (https://joinpeertube.org), seems to be "I want a boring lecture on how bad Big Tech is"?

    There are several instances, but that is not the solution to what the parent comment is pointing out. Videos are being published on YouTube because of network effect; it has become the defacto platform.

    There already is an alternative to youtube. Peertube https://joinpeertube.org/

    The problem is most content creators are only publishing on YouTube, so that is where you have to go. If you are a content creator please publish on peertube so we have options. If you know a creator, likewise encourage them to publish there.

    The website for vanced you link isn't official one, so high chance of it spreading Malware. This one's official: https://vancedapp.com/. Also, dislikes still show in vanced, if it doesn't then it will work after troubleshooting
    5 projects | /r/Piracy | 31 Mar 2023
    you are obviously correct. https://vancedapp.com IS official site, but due to google seizing the app, they removed all links to vanced manager from this official site.

    I was on my phone so I couldn't elaborate. The download link opened an ad, followed by a play store page for another app, followed by fake "you won!" pages and more ads. That wasn't the official page. This is the official one: https://vancedapp.com/

    Hey, whatever link you posted is possibly malware, not legit, etc. The actual vanced website is https://vancedapp.com. It was discontinued a while back due to legal threat from Google, and instead the new project is Youtube ReVanced (a series of patches that are compiled and then injected into the app, rather than distributing a pre-modified apk file). There's a sub for it, /r/Vanced
