Why use PeerTube? It makes YouTubing less risky.
Having a test audience and re-uploads lets you catch issues before they go up on YouTube permanently. PeerTube also gives you a permanent archive of your work so that you'll always have a copy even if YouTube takes it down.
PAIGE!

in reply to fedihost • • •Great video Paige! I've been having thoughts about what it would be like to start a PeerTube instance dedicated to train videos. So, I'll be following this series with interest! Hoping to see particularly what storage costs tend to be for small shared instance as videos get posted.
speaking of QA... at 9m5s you have Chanel (luxury brand?) content.

in reply to allen • • •Hey Allen,
You can look at the about page of a Peertube instance to see how much storage the instance is using in relation to how many videos it's hosting.

Keep in mind, it's definitely not an exact science because there are many ways to optimize a video to minimizing storage if this is your priority.
You can get an idea of storage costs on the fedihost pricing page:

in reply to fedihost • •I was going to say that #peertube can do re-uploads, but then realized you were talking about YT:)
The idea of uploading to peertube first is brilliant #FediFirst it's a great backup, and a life raft, as you say, if Google turns "evil";)
