Che cos'è PeerTube?

PeerTube ti permette di creare la tua piattaforma video, in completa autonomia.

With PeerTube, no more opaque algorithms or obscure moderation policies! PeerTube platforms you visit are built, managed and moderated by their owners.

PeerTube allows platforms to be connected to each other, creating a big network of platforms that are both autonomous and interconnected.

PeerTube non monetizza sulla pubblicità e non traccia i tuoi dati!

What do we find, on PeerTube?

Discover our recommendations selected among the 600.000 videos and the 1.000 platforms of the PeerTube network

PeerTube non dipende dal monopolio di nessuna azienda.

Like the other tools developed by Framasoft, PeerTube considers you as a person and not as a product to be profiled and locked in video loops.

PeerTube is free, open-source, created for non-commercial purposes.

An ethical and open source digital common

PeerTube appartiene a te. Puoi aiutarci in ogni momento a migliorare PeerTube con le tue idee, suggerimenti o modificando autonomamente il codice.

PeerTube is a free software, not a secret formula that belongs to Google (in the case of Youtube) or to Vivendi/Bolloré (Dailymotion). This free/libre license guarantees our fundamental freedoms as users.

Domande? Siamo qui per aiutarti!

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.

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.

An open code under a free/libre license

  • PeerTube is freely provided, no need to pay to install it on your server
  • We can look under the hood of PeerTube (its source code): it's auditable, transparent
  • 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.

Exciting features for viewers

  • Enjoy a beautiful adaptative player that includes chapters and previews on the web interface or the mobile application
  • Personalize the interface with themes, filtering, NSFW settings, and autoplay preferences
  • Save videos for later, organize playlists, resume playback, and check watch history
  • Follow channels and access new videos in a dedicated feed
  • And many more features!

For content creators

  • Join a community with aligned values, talk to real moderators, and export/import your content across PeerTube platforms
  • Let PeerTube automatically synchronize a channel from a remote platform (Youtube, Vimeo, etc.)
  • Access detailed analytics, edit (trim, watermark, intro/outro) or a upload new version of your video
  • Stream via OBS or other RTMP software, enable replays and interact with viewers via live chat
  • Manage multiple channel that can be followed by ActivityPub platforms (PeerTube, Mastodon, Pleroma, etc.) for greater discoverability
  • And many more features!

And for administrators

  • Full control & customization with many settings, plugins, themes
  • Customize the homepage with Markdown/HTML, set instance branding (avatar, banner, categories), define default user settings, and broadcast messages with a banner
  • Manage user registrations, set upload limits, assign moderator roles, review abuse reports, block or ban users, and mute accounts or platforms
  • Advanced video transcoding with the ability to use remote runners
  • And many more features!
