      It’s basically YouTube, but FOSS, federated and has P2P functionality to lessen the stress on the server that will be streaming the video to the user.

      Peertube is to Youtube what Lemmy is to Reddit. Individual instances host the content uploaded by that instance’s members, viewers can browse the entire federation. To help with server load, Peertube has a P2P function; if 100 people are watching the same video at the same time, some of them will upload parts of the video they’ve already downloaded to others.
