What could be done to make PeerTube more popular?
A free software to take back control of your videos! With more than 600,000 hosted videos, viewed more than 70 millions times and 150,000 users, PeerTube is the decentralized free software alternative to videos platforms developed by Framasoft
PeerTube is fantastic with its decentralized model that prioritizes user privacy and control. However, it still struggles to gain widespread popularity.
What do you think could be done to enhance PeerTube's appeal and functionality, possibly even becoming a serious alternative to YouTube?

We need to make it more profitable to post on peertube than to post on yt.
Thatβs probably impossible, since there are no ads on PeerTube. Thereβs nothing keeping content creators from using YouTube AND PeerTube though.
Yes, do both platforms, and also we've already figured out that the patron model works. If enough people like something, some will pay to support the creator.
That fact doesn't grow peertube right now, but I think it means we don't actually need to monetise peertube directly.
That would mean that some walk away from YouTube. Thus shrinking the ad revenue.
It's a problem.
I think if we do a crypto based pay per gb for generalised data delivery we could do it.
Adding crypto is just adding another layer of complexity imho.
An integration with Liberapay would be in the right direction, I think.
