    Don’t most YouTubers make more money with their own sponsorships than from YT ads? Can we start the mass migration to PeerTube already?

      I don’t think Peertube would handle mass migration of Youtube creators, unless each and every one of them set up their own instance.

        I’d honestly be curious to see how that plays out. Every creator hosts their own content while strengthening and spreading the Peertube network.

        I feel like that would quickly solidify it as a viable alternative.

      YT will likely attempt to play creators and viewers off one another. Similar to how hospitality does so with patrons and staff re: tips. You could see a FUD campaign aimed at anyone republishing their work on competitor sites.
