It’s not peer to peer though. It’s similar to Lemmy and Mastodon where someone hosts an instance and serves video from that. Except with video it gets very expensive, so I don’t think server admins want to see a migration happen.
A peer to peer solution would actually be cheaper for everyone involved.
Seems like infrastructure cost is a central problem of video hosting, so features to distribute that cost load among users would be must-have for any video service not bankrolled by a huge corp.

Peer to peer seems like a good idea to cope with the ridiculous amount of data used for videos. Hopefully this gets more popular over time!

Does it have a payment model built into it?
