PeerTube is a decentralized, open-source video sharing platform that allows users to publish and share videos online. Launched in 2018, PeerTube aims to provide a decentralized and ethical alternative to centralized platforms such as YouTube, Vimeo and Dailymotion.
PeerTube's operation is based on the peer-to-peer (P2P) protocol, which allows users to share and view videos from their own or third-party servers. Videos are stored and streamed by peers connected to the network, spreading out storage and bandwidth costs.
In addition to decentralization, PeerTube offers features for users such as the ability to create channels, follow content creators, and comment and react to videos. Content creators can also choose to publish their videos under an open source license, which allows other users to reuse and share them freely.
PeerTube is a constantly evolving platform, with regular updates and new features. There are also several PeerTube instances hosted by organizations and communities, offering a wide variety of content.
