You could probably get away with never releasing it and just leave it null.
Or simply hand you.tube to YouTube. Why not? :)
Where's the fun in that

Wow only one developer working on PeerTube and not even full time. No way will that level of effort be able to challenge any of the incumbents.
You are welcome to help. I have very little time but managed to get a working android client running and published: https://github.com/sschueller/peertube-android
Has this line of thinking ever actually convinced even one person?
It's why FOSS can't make serious inroads in a lot of domains. Like 20 years ago I was convinced we'd all never be paying for Word, but here we are, 20 years later, still buying Word.

#113Can someone explain the point of federating PeerTube. Their site doesn't really explain it, and it seems like you still need to create an account on every instance you want to use (if you want to comment on/rate videos). How is it different from lots of independent sites, with RSS feeds for each channel?
You only need one account on any instance and you can rate/comment on any video in the federated network. However there are instances that don't follow each other and for those you would need a separate account.
Surely that's most instances? I don't see why the Blender instance would follow the Extinction Rebellion instance for example?
And doesn't that make it an N^2 problem? Does every instance have to follow every other instance to make this work?

#114Question to PeerTube: What are you doing to curb the ever-growing number of white supremacists using your platform?
1) peertube is not a platform, 2) nothing, hopefully. If you don't like it don't watch it. There are 0 wholesome reasons to have a hard on for dictating to people what they can or can't say.

Word does exactly what it says on the tin and doesnt steal your data. Facebook/google on the other hand...

Inertia has long lasting effects.

We are buying Word?

It isn't about challenging anything. It's about a libre alternative. Does the apple challenge the orange? They are both fruits!
As a peer-to-peer service, its existence depends on uptake, and as a video service, uptake of PeerTube is a challenge to YouTube.
You can take up both.

The fact that anything at all happens for $0 is amazing. It's hard to find half-decent volunteer opportunities in general.
