    Nobody here wants peertube really.

    They want free bandwidth (streaming 4k60), free computation (encoding, optimization), free research (codec development) and free storage (for endless amount of videos). Google sucking is a valid reason to piggyback on Google infrastructure but they seem to feel entitled to Google just letting it happen.

      I never understood, and never will understand this.

      Even when I was a poor teenager and pirated essentially everything I always knew that this content only exists because someone is paying for it.

      How do people go around feeling like the best VoD platform to ever exist, available on every device imaginable, optimized for years by best software engineers the world has, should be free, and without ads is beyond me.
