          This won’t help PeerTube become mainstream either.

          Hosting videos is extremely expensive, thus there is a financial incentive against hosting a PeerTube instance.

          Unless PeerTube fixes the incentives, it won’t be sustainable long-term.

            They should do something like Nebula. A subscription maybe in cryptocoins so you still get privacy over your credit card.

          It’s more that (as I understand it) the storage requirements increase exponentially relative to the number of users.
