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.

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?
