Even if you magically host video, the real challenge is discoverability.
Itβs a bit like how easy it is to replace google maps, but the secret sauce is google places.
I can see how you would think that but peertube is very good bar the discoverability atm. Hosting your own content is easy and cheap. Just the search engine needs to be better. And you need to be able to search all federated servers.
My example is minecraft. I make videos but if I search minecraft on peertube some random stuff gets pushed for a reason I cant understand.
And the almost hidden gotcha of sharing your IP.
You can use a VPS or cloudflare in that case
