Finally, I love that they've created https://peer.tube/ to showcase good content on PeerTube. Discoverability has been quite a challenge.

Also, remote transcoding of videos seems like a huge win! Makes it so you won't need as beefy as a system to run PeerTube.

I wonder why FOSDEM doesn't use PeerTube to host their videos.

Cool, I hope they keep it "safe for play store review". I have had to run my own server in order to get the client[1] I wrote to pass play store reviews.

You can technically do it if you're willing to hack around. Since it uses the ffmpeg binary you could technically replace it with rffmpeg[1], the setup isn't pretty but it's doable. I haven't done it myself but have seen reddit posts on the jellyfin community that it works pretty well once setup.

I didn’t watch any of their videos yet this year, but perhaps the thing they are using to host their videos is something they have built on their own, before PeerTube even existed? And so if what they have works then that’s a good reason to stick to using that.
