Vector HugoFor geeks it isn't exactly news that #Alphabet #Google video platform #themtube aka "YouTube" doesn't think of @peertube as a rival, an alternative at best. The bombshell is embedded in the goals of these #FOSS developers, and imho there is some modern political resistance in the virtual air. It's progressive, French, and I love it already.
"The realization that led us to develop PeerTube is that no one can rival YouTube or Twitch. You would need Google’s money, Amazon servers’ farms... Above all, you would need the greed to exploit millions of creators and videomakers, groom them into formatting their content to your needs, and feed them the crumbs of the wealth you gain by farming their audience into data livestock.
Monopolistic centralized video platforms can only be sustained by surveillance capitalism."
