Im not holding my breath for someone to start hosting petabytes of videos for free. I don’t like ads, so I’m just going to pay.
You say that as if it's the only option while being on a platform that explicitly isn't a single organization hosting the entire thing. There's no way this is a serious comment.
Lemmy has 50 thousand users and hosts mostly text and static images. YouTube has 2.7 billion users and hosts mostly high quality video. Pretending it's even remotely the same is pointless.
Of course, and that's why something like PeerTube works differently.
