The advantage of YouTube (and other platforms) is its video catalog: from knitting tutorials to Minecraft constructions
through videos of kittens or holidays... you can find everything!

The more the video catalogue is varied, the more people are interested, the more videos are uploaded... but hosting videos from
all over the world is (very, very) expensive!

If the hosting provider Knitting-PeerTube becomes friends with Kittens-Tube and Framatube, it will display the videos of

As a result, on your PeerTube website, the audience will be able to watch not only your videos, but also videos hosted by

It allows you to choose a hoster that fits you. YouTube's excesses are a good exemple: its hoster, Google/Alphabet, can
impose its "Robocopyright" (the ContentID system) or its tools to index, recommend and spotlight videos; and those tools seem
as unfair as they are obscure. Even though, it already forces you

You're right. PeerTube 1.0 is not the perfect tool, far from it. And we never promised that this version 1.0 would be a
tool that would include all the features corresponding to all cases.

PeerTube 1.0 is the realization of the commitment we made in October 2017 to take PeerTube from an alpha version (personal
project and proof of concept that a federated video platform could work) to a 1.0 version in October 2018 (which does not mean
"final version", but "version considered stable and distributable").</p>
<p>Remember that PeerTube has only one (almost) full time developer and a small handful of very involved volunteers. It is not a
"final version", but "version considered stable and distributable").

Remember that PeerTube has only one (almost) full time developer and a small handful of very involved volunteers. It is not a
product developed by a start-up with a full time team (dev, design, UX, marketing, support, etc.) and significant financial
support. It is a Community free software, the development of which will continue over the months and, we hope, in the years to
come.</p>
<p>We are well aware of the shortcomings of PeerTube 1.0, especially in the moderation tools area (videos, comments, etc.). And
we intend to work on these weaknesses. </p>
<p>We have chosen to do so as follows: on the one hand we will work primarily in the coming months to improve these tools within

<p v-translate>
We have chosen to do so as follows: on the one hand we will work primarily in the coming months to improve these tools within
PeerTube itself (in the <i>core</i> of the software). On the other hand, we will also focus, in parallel, a large part of
PeerTube's development effort during 2019 on the integration of a plugin system, which can be developed by the communities.

Indeed, we do not claim to have the science behind it and know how best to manage each of the tools according to each of the
needs. For example: with regard to the question of DMCA requests, cases vary according to geographical jurisdictions (European
law is different from French law, itself different from Canadian law, itself different from American law, etc.). Concerning
the tools for moderating comments, here again, we cannot decree ourselves experts of the subject, because this is simply not
the case.</p>
<p>By acting both on the <i>core</i>, but also by allowing the development of plugins, we believe that PeerTube will, in the
long term, be able to respond much better to these issues and allow different communities to adapt PeerTube to their needs.
