mastodon's official instance is mastodon.social lemmy's official instance is lemmy.ml pixelfed's official instance is pixelfed.social

what is peertube's official instance? im looking to upload videos without the fear of my content getting deleted because the instance is closing. and i mostly prefer to use the official instances of fediverse enabled social networks.

i read about peer.tube on the faq, but signup is not available yet.

thanks.

this doesn't matter, as long as there isn't another backup odysee that has all the videos or the users have them in their bittorrent programs they would still be lost. Not a huge problem, just a fact.

Also peertube also allows other servers to help with video hosting, which means the videos are mirrored on more than one server.

LBRY pays users for storing & sharing that stuff:

BitTorrent and IPFS rely on people being generous with their own resources for data to continue to be available. LBRY creates market incentives for data to be as widespread and available as possible.
