why use proprietary when Peertube is free and libre

[-] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 30 points 1 year ago

Because content is on youtube, and PeerTube does not have bridging capabilities. That's the reason.

It's when you connect two unrelated platforms. If PeerTube had a YouTube bridge it would be able to play YouTube content directly on all of its instances without people having to re-upload anything.
