Che cos'è PeerTube?
PeerTube is a tool that you install on a web server. It allows you to create a video hosting website, so create your "homemade YouTube".
La differenza con YouTube è che non ha lo scopo di creare un'enorme piattaforma centralizzando i video di tutto il mondo su una singola server farm (che è terribilmente costosa).
Al contrario, il concetto di PeerTube è quello di creare una rete di più piccoli provider di video hosting interconnessi.
L'obiettivo di PeerTube è di rimpiazzare YouTube?
Possiamo rispondere con un: certamente no!
The ambition remains to be a free and decentralized alternative: the goal of an alternative is not to replace, but to propose something else, with different values, in parallel to what already exists.
Quali sono i principali vantaggi di PeerTube?
PeerTube è unico perché (per quanto ne sappiamo) è l'unica applicazione web di hosting di video che combina tre vantaggi:
An open code under a free/libre license
- PeerTube è fornito gratuitamente, non è necessario pagare per installarlo sul tuo server;
- Possiamo guardare sotto il cofano di PeerTube (il suo codice sorgente): è verificabile, trasparente;
- It can be enhanced by everyone's contributions.
A federation of interconnected hosting providers
- It decentralizes video storage and decision-making power;
- We can display videos and accounts of other PeerTube websites;
- It's based on ActivityPub to connect with tools like Mastodon for example.
Peer-to-peer broadcasting
- It reduces server bandwidth overload if a video becomes viral;
- We become an actor of the video broadcasting;
- It's based on WebRTC, a free and open-source project for web browsers.
