Peertube - a decentralized video hosting network

[synchrone]

PeerTube is software that you install on a web server. It allows you to create a video hosting website, so create your "homemade YouTube".

The difference to YouTube is that it's not intended to create a huge platform centralizing videos from the whole world on a single server farm (which is horribly expensive).

On the contrary, PeerTube's concept is to create a network of multiple small interconnected video hosting providers.

They have recently finished crowdfunding, so it seems to be getting traction

@synchrone I really feel decentralization, security, and user control are all coming together lately. I second this app!

Peertube apparently now has an LDAP ability now too. Saw this today: https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/official-plugins/-/tree/master/peertube-plugin-auth-ldap

@girish said in Invidious: an alternative front-end to YouTube:

Peertube recently added LDAP support, just waiting for their upstream release.

And a moment later I see you posted another link to the release!

Does that mean you're going to start packaging Peertube and add it to WIP tag?

[girish]

@jdaviescoates Done peertube is actually easy to package since it's just a node app, I already have it, was just waiting for LDAP. Will try LDAP later today.

I tried this a bit. peertube requires the unaccent extension in postgres. I have now enabled this for 5.3. So, we can have peertube after 5.3 is released.

Peertube is now available I will lock this thread and create a separate forum section.
