I know some things about both, but im still confused for some reason. Like what is the difference between peertube and youtube, which is better?

I was thinking of getting into one of theses for video creation but im not sure which would be better as a sort of hobby? also do i need a powerful pc or a good microphone to get started? is it better to record with or without your voice?

Feel free to add on to this, but please be kind.

PeerTube is part of the Fediverse so you need to pick an instance and each has a limit on the amount of content you can upload, so if you are prolific this might run out quickly. There are also no ads so you have to.rely on other sources for income (Patreon, affiliate links, etc).

is there a peertube instance with no limits by chance, or should i just go with YouTube?

You'd need to fish around as they come online all.the time and can close to new members, so it can change a lot.
