Peertube

Social Media

PeerTube is a decentralized video sharing platform developed by Framasoft, a French non-profit organization. It allows users to create their own video hosting websites, forming a network of interconnected platforms, free from centralized control and advertising. PeerTube leverages ActivityPub for federation and peer-to-peer broadcasting for efficient video streaming directly in your web browser. It is designed to be an ethical, open-source alternative to mainstream video platforms like YouTube and Dailymotion, emphasizing user autonomy and privacy. PeerTube is built on an open code under a free/libre license, ensuring transparency and user control. The platform is community-driven, with development funded primarily through donations. Users can contribute by providing ideas, suggestions, or modifying the source code. PeerTube aims to offer a parallel, value-driven alternative to existing video platforms, fostering a diverse and independent video-sharing ecosystem.
