A few days ago I spent a little bit of time looking at #PeerTube, to see if it can replace YouTube yet.
I tried and failed to set up an instance on my own server, because it doesn't have enough RAM to keep up with transcoding.
I made an account on cuddly.tube: @christianp@cuddly.tube, and had a go at live streaming there but I don't think it kept up. I also uploaded a short video: cuddly.tube/w/sMqkvBnzeLk1UtY4….
Are there any PeerTube instances that can reliably live stream? I don't mind paying my way in.
Update: Omg Thank you so much for the money so far, let's keep the ball rolling let's see if i can get enough to afford new clothes that fit me ❤️
Main: I live in an abusive and transphobic home, my family hates me because i am trans. i am disabled and unable to get a job. i will literally die without donations. Please donate to me to help me afford my basic necessities like HRT, food, clothing, phone bill, etc. Anything helps please!
Current Goals:
food: $100/$100
misc expenses: $200/$200
feminine clothing: $0/$300
prescription glasses: $0/$250

I still wonder why remote interaction is made so difficult when there will always be more remote users than local ones. After all, every like on PeerTube so far counts 10 times more. 😉

The video begins with two men in a dimly lit room, one in a beige trench coat and the other in a light blue suit, engaged in a tense conversation. The man in the trench coat appears distressed, while the man in the suit leans forward, suggesting a confrontational interaction. The scene transitions to the man in the suit walking away down a corridor lined with shelves, indicating a shift in focus or a change in the situation. The corridor is dimly lit, with a green exit sign visible in the distance, adding to the somber atmosphere.
As the man in the suit continues down the corridor, the man in the trench coat follows, maintaining the tension. The corridor is flanked by shelves filled with files, emphasizing the institutional setting. The man in the suit reaches a door at the end of the corridor, opens it, and steps through, leaving the man in the trench coat behind. The scene then shifts to a different room where the man in the trench coat is on the floor, seemingly in distress, while another man in a dark suit kneels beside him, possibly offering assistance. A woman in a light-colored dress and another man in a light blue suit enter the room, observing the situation. The video concludes with the group standing around the man on the floor, suggesting a moment of concern or intervention.

Grief hangs heavy over Gaza as the death toll continues to rise and devastation mounts.
In just 24 hours, 39 Palestinians were killed and 317 more were injured.
One of the martyrs was retrieved from beneath the rubble, just one among many still trapped under collapsed buildings and scattered in the streets, unreachable by overwhelmed ambulance and civil defense crews due to the ongoing shelling.

in reply to Christian Lawson-Perfect • • •Just a thought, from a knuckle-dragging biology scientist. TL;DR: I believe there is scope to make the hosting of a peertube instance even more lightweight in the future.
I read some time ago of people using #webAssembly to transcode video in a user's web-browser. blog.scottlogic.com/2020/11/23…
Since then, I believe #WebGPU has done/is doing some clever things to improve the browser's access to the device's GPU.
I have not seen any #peertube capability that offloads video transcoding to the user in this way.
I imagine, though, that this would align well with peertube's agenda of lowering the bar to entry into web-video hosting, so I cannot help but think that this will come in time.
My own interest is seeing a #Piefed (activitypub) instance whose web-pages could #autotranslate posts into the user's own language using the user's own processing power... One day, maybe!
Thank you again for all your hard work; it is an inspiration.
