I understand why some creators, including myself, don't leave #YouTube. However it's *vital* now more than ever to also make yourself a #PeerTube server. You need an accurate archive of your work that YOU control, even if no one watches it there. youtube.com/watch?v=MrwJgDHJJo…

Dilman's right, it's easier than people realise to create your own PeerTube. You don't need to be a techy person.
If you need help publishing on PeerTube I've done a guide which covers both uploading to other people's servers and setting up your own: fedi.tips/how-to-publish-video…

in reply to Operation: Puppet 🇨🇦🏳️🌈 • • •it really depends on your use case though. I feel like, for example, gamersnexus has a large enough following to use an independent platform but for those just starting out and wanting to gain a user base, it will be a lot harder to get them to use a new platform and even harder to get sponsors.
It's a good initiative though

in reply to beem • • •I think the idea @operationpuppet is saying is even if you are mainly on YouTube, it's important to also have a PeerTube presence as a backup that YouTube cannot touch.
If YouTube is going to start altering/censoring/removing your videos without permission, then your viewers can always go over to your PeerTube to see the unaltered original version that you actually made.

That might be true from a lawyer's point of view, but most YouTube uploaders are going to be very shocked and pissed off if their videos are being altered without them being asked.
Either way, it's reinforcing the OP's point about needing to also have a PeerTube version that is outside Google's control.

I run a site at fedi.video which highlights the good stuff on PeerTube. All the accounts that you can browse or search on the site are manually chosen.
I also have manually maintained playlists on the front page about various topics.
