well idk. They don't have the content monopoly yt has and isn't it paid? Also, PeerTube is the Fediverse alternative. So basically what Lemmy is to Reddit, PeerTube is to YouTube. And if you are ok with watching YouTube but just don't want the surveillance, you should use NewPipe or PipePipe.
I actually want to get rid of youtube. The only thing still keeping me on YT tbh its games trailers. There was a channel on peertube that used to upload games trailers but it was abandoned :(

I wish people would just download from youtube, upload to peertube, and share the peertube link as a matter of course when they want to share videos. It adds a few steps, but you'd save a lot of people from having to deal with that hellsite.
Yes!!
