Calling Peertube a Youtube alternative is just wrong. It is an alternative in theory but it probably doesn't even have a milionth of the content that Youtube has.

That's the problem with "the winner takes it all" on the Internet. Which European alternative would you suggest instead?

I'm not saying PeerTube is bad, but if I was a regular person that wanted an alternative to YouTube, going to PeerTube would be an annoying experience that will probably turn me off from it. You have to let people come with the appropriate expectations.

YouTube also didn’t have that variety and amount of videos when it started \o/

So? Again, peertube is great and I'm hoping it grows, but sending people ther as a YT alternative right now is just misleading, odyssey is much closer and even then I wouldn't call it a real alternative yet.
