power:
title: Take back the power… and the responsibilities!
desc: 'PeerTube isnt a single video hosting platform with a single group of
rules: its a network of dozens of interconnected hosting providers, and each
provider is composed of different people and administrators. You dont like
some of the rules? Youre free to join the hosting provider of your choice,
or even better, be your own hosting provider with your own rules!'
content:
title: Take control of your content
desc: PeerTube allows you to share all your videos. Being in direct contact
with a human hosting provider (or becoming your own) allows you to choose
how their broadcasting is done. Your videos will benefit from tools to fill
description, categorization, choosing a preview image and marking videos as
not safe for work. Tweaking the <strong>Support</strong> button will allow
you to show your audience how you want them to support your work.
usersfirst:
title: Putting the users first
desc: 'Youre a person, not a product. PeerTube is a free/libre software financed
by a French non-profit organization: @:data.html.soft</>. All instances are
created, animated, moderated and maintained independently. PeerTube isnt
submitted by any company monopole, doesnt depend on ads and doesnt track
you. With PeerTube youre not a product: PeerTube is at your service, not
the other way around.'
broadcast:
title: Become an actor of your videos broadcasting
desc: When you watch a video with PeerTube, the WebTorrent technology allows
you to be part of the broadcasting of this video with the viewers who are
watching it at the same time. This video stream sharing allows a healthier
distribution of exchanges on the network. Moreover, the federation protocol
(ActivityPub) allows to publish the videos and comments on other platforms
that support it, such as <a href="@:data.link.mastodon">Mastodon</a>! (experimental)

- Youll only host your own users and their own videos. You can define the number
of available registrations and a disk quota per user. Only videos from instances
you <strong>have chosen</strong> to follow will show up on your homepage.

how:
title: How it works
text:
- Everybody can host a PeerTube server we call <strong>instance</strong>. Every
instance hosts its own users and their videos. It also keeps a list of the
videos available of the instances the administrator chooses to follow in order
to suggest them to its users.
- Every account has a globally unique identifier (e.g. @chocobozzz@framatube.org)
consisting of the local username (@chocobozzz) and the domain name of the
server it is on (framatube.org).
- The administrators of a PeerTube instance can follow each other. When your
PeerTube instance follows another PeerTube instance, you receive the videos'
preview information from this instance. This way, you can display the videos
available on your instance and on the instances you decided to follow. So
you keep control of the videos displayed on your PeerTube instance!
btn: Questions?
why:
title: Why is that cool?
text:
- Servers are run independently by different people and organizations. They
can apply wildly different moderation policies, so you can find or make one
that fits your taste perfectly.
- By watching a video, you help the hosting provider to broadcast it by becoming
a broadcaster of the video yourself. Each instance doesnt need much money
to broadcast the videos of its users.

tech: Technical questions
prez:
what:
title: What is PeerTube?
text:
- PeerTube is software that you install on a web server. It allows you to create
a video hosting website, so create your "homemade YouTube".
- The difference to YouTube is that its not intended to create a huge platform
centralizing videos from the whole world on a single server farm (which is
horribly expensive).
- On the contrary, PeerTubes concept is to create a network of multiple small
interconnected video hosting providers.
pros:
title: The three main advantages of PeerTube.
text:
- 'PeerTube is unique because (as far as we know) its the only video hosting
web application which combines three advantages:'
- Linked together, these three features makes it easy to host videos on the
server side, while remaining practical, ethical and fun for the internet users.
list:
- An open code (transparency) under a free/libre license (ethic, respect and
community-driven development);
- A federation of interconnected hosting providers (so more video choices wherever
you go to see them);
- Peer-to-peer broadcasting and therefore viewing (so no slowing down when
a video becomes viral).
libre:
title: Why is it better as free/libre software?
text:
- Because by design free/libre software respects our fundamental freedoms, and
guarantees them by <a href="@:data.link.gitPT/blob/develop/LICENSE">a license</a>,
so a legally enforceable contract.
- 'Concretely here, it means that:'
list:
- PeerTube is freely provided, no need to pay to install it on your server;
- 'We can look under the hood of PeerTube (its source code): its auditable,
transparent;'
- Its development is community-based, it can be enhanced by everyones contributions.
federated:
title: Whats the interest to federate the video hosting providers?
text:
- '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 others on its site, thus diluting
hosting costs while remaining practical and complete for Internet users.
- 'PeerTubes federation protocol will be fluid (everyone can choose their "friends"
hosts), and based on <a href="@:data.link.activitypub">ActivityPub</a>: this
will open the possibility to connect with tools like Mastodon or MediaGoblin.'
p2p:
title: Why broadcast PeerTube videos through peer-to-peer?
text:
- 'When you host a large file like a video, the biggest thing to fear is success:
if a video becomes viral and many people watch it at the same time, the server
has a big risk of getting overloaded!'
- Peer-to-peer broadcasting allows, thanks to the <a href="@:link.wArticle/WebRTC">WebRTC</a>
protocol, that Internet users who watch the same video at the same time exchange
bits of files, which relieves the server.
- 'There is nothing to do: your web browser does it automatically. If you are
on a mobile phone or if your network does not allow it (router, firewall,
etc.), this function is disabled and switches back to an "old-style" video
broadcast @:data.emoji.wink</>.'
admin:
title: For those who know how to administer a server, PeerTube is…
text:
- '<strong>Its software you install on your server</strong> to create a website
where videos are hosted and broadcast… Basically: you create your own "homemade
YouTube"!'
- There already exists free/libre software that enables you to do this. But
with PeerTube, you can link your instance (your video website) to Zaïds PeerTube
instance (where he hosts videos of the lectures for his peoples university),
to Catherins (who hosts her webmedia videos) or even to Solars PeerTube
instance (who manages a vloggers collective).
- '<strong>But PeerTube doesnt centralize: it federates.</strong> Thanks to
the <a href="@:data.link.activitypub">ActivityPub</a> protocol (also used
by <a href="@:data.link.mastodon">the Mastodon federation</a>, a free/libre
Twitter alternative), PeerTube can federate several small hosters so they
dont have to buy thousands of hard disks to host videos for the whole world.'
- As a result, on your PeerTube website, the audience will be able to watch
not only your videos, but also videos hosted by Zaïd, Catherin or Solar… without
having to host their videos on your PeerTube-powered website. Such diversity
in a video-catalog makes it very attractive. Such a large choice and diversity
of videos is what made centralized platforms such as YouTube succesful.
- 'Federation offers another benefit: <strong>everyone becomes independent</strong>.
Zaïd, Catherin, Solar and yourself can make your own rules, your own Terms
of Services (for example, one can imagine a MeowTube where dogs videos are
strictly forbidden @:data.emoji.wink).'
video-maker:
title: For those who wants to upload their videos, PeerTube allows…
text:
- 'It allows you to choose a hoster that fits you. YouTubes 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 <a href="@:data.link.tosdr">to give it extended copyrights on your
videos, for free</a>!'
- With PeerTube, <strong>you can choose the hoster of your videos according
to his terms of services</strong>, his moderation policy, his federation choices…
As you dont have a tech giant facing you, you might be able to talk with
you hoster if you ever have a problem, a need, or something you want.
- The other big advantage of PeerTube is that your hoster doesnt have to fear
the sudden success of one of your videos. Indeed, PeerTube broadcasts videos
with the protocol <a href="@:link.wArticle/BitTorrent">WebTorrent</a>. If
hundreds of people are watching your video at the same time, their browsers
automatically send bits of your video to other viewers.
- Before this peer-to-peer broadcast, successful videographers (or videos that
make the buzz) were doomed to be hosted by a web giant whose infrastructure
can handle millions of simultaneous views… Or to pay for a very expensive
independent video host so that it can hold the load.
audience:
title: For those who want to watch videos, PeerTube can offer…
text:
- One of the benefits is that <strong>you become a part of the broadcasting
of the videos you are watching</strong>. If other people are watching a PeerTube
video at the same time as you, as long as your tab remains open, your browser
shares bits of that video and you participate in a healthier use of the Internet.
- 'Of course, PeerTubes video player adapts to your situation: if your installation
does not allow peer-to-peer playback (corporate network, recalcitrant browser,
etc.) video playback will be done in the classic way.'
- But above all, <strong>PeerTube treats you like a person, not as a product</strong>
that it has to track, profile, and lock in video loops to better sell your
available brain time. Thus, the <a href="@:data.link.gitPT">source code</a>
(the recipe) of the PeerTube software is open, making its operation transparent.
- '<strong>PeerTube is not only open-source: its free (as in free speech).</strong>
Its free license guarantees our fundamental freedoms as users. It is this
respect for our freedoms that allows Framasoft to invite you to contribute
to this software, and many evolutions (innovative comment system, etc.) have
already been suggested by some of you.'
remplace-yt:
title: Is PeerTubes purpose to replace YouTube?
text:
- 'We can answer with certainty: no!'
- In March 2018, PeerTube released its publicly usable beta version. Several
collectives set up the first instances, thus creating the bases of the federation.
- But this is just the beginning, PeerTube is not (yet) perfect, and many features
are missing. We intend to continue to improve it to release a version 1 by
the end of 2018.
- 'March 2018 thus represents the birth of the PeerTube federations: the more
this software will be used and supported, the more people will use it and
contribute to it, and the faster it will evolve towards a concrete alternative
to platforms such as YouTube.'
- 'Nevertheless, the ambition remains to be <strong>a free and decentralized
alternative</strong>: the goal of an alternative is not to replace, but to
propose something else, with different values, in parallel to what already
exists.'
content:
law:
title: If its free, can we upload illegal stuff on it?
text:
- Being free doesnt mean being above the law! Each PeerTube hosting provider
can decide on its own general conditions of use, abiding by their local laws.
- For example, in France, discriminatory content <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lois_contre_le_racisme_et_les_discours_de_haine">is
prohibited</a> and may be <a href="http://stop-discrimination.gouv.fr/agir/ne-pas-laisser-faire-les-recours">reported
to the authorities</a>. PeerTube allows users to report problematic videos,
and each administrator must then apply its moderation in accordance with its
terms and conditions and the law.
- The federation system, for its part, allows hosts to decide with whom they
want to connect, depending on the types of content or the moderation policies
of others.
responsible:
title: Who is responsible for content published on PeerTube?
text:
- 'PeerTube is not a website: it is software that allows a web hoster (for example,
Dominique) to create a video website (lets call it DominiqueTube).'
- Now imagine that Camille has created an account on DominiqueTube and uploads
an illegal video, because this video uses music created by Solal.
- Solal goes on Framatube, an instance which follows DominiqueTube. So, Solal
can see, from Framatube, the videos published on DominiqueTube.
- Solal sees Camilles illegal video, and signals it with the button provided
for that purpose. Although the report is made from Framatube, it is sent directly
to the person hosting the illegal content, Dominique.
- From that moment on, Dominique is responsible, because they are warned that
theyre hosting an illegal video. It is therefore up to them to act if they
dont want to be held accountable before the law.
- Then Dominique and Solal can turn against Camille, who uploaded the video.
money:
title: What is PeerTubes remuneration policy?
text:
- OrderedDict([('There are none, not at the moment', 'PeerTube is a tool that
we wanted neutral in terms of remuneration.')])
- 'For now, the solution proposed to people who upload videos is to use the
"support" button under the video. This button displays a frame in which people
who upload videos can display text, images, and links freely. For example,
its possible to put a link to Patreon, Tipeee, Paypal, Liberapay (or any
other solution) there. Other examples: put a postal address if youd like
to receive physical thank-you cards, put a logo of your enterprise, a link
to support a non-profit organisation…'
- We did not go any further because to favour one technical solution would be
to impose, in the code, a political vision of cultural sharing and its financing.
All financial solutions are possible and treated equally in PeerTube.
- However, many improvements of PeerTube are to be expected… Including those
that would allow you to create (and choose) the monetization tools that interest
you!
- 'Nevertheless, it is worth remembering that the vast majority of videos published
on the Internet (and even on YouTube) are shared for non-market purposes:
remuneration is a tool, but not necessarily a main or essential purpose.'
instances:
title: Where can I put my videos?
text:
- You need to find a PeerTube hosting instance you trust.
- Theres a complete <a href="@:data.link.instancesPT">list of instances here</a>,
and a list of those that are <a href="./#getting-started">open to registration
here</a>.
- Then, we recommend you go to the instances, read their "about" page to discover
their terms of use (disk space limit per user, content policy, etc.).
- Its best to contact and talk directly with hosting providers, to understand
their business model, vision, etc. Because only you can determine what makes
you trust such or such host, and thus entrust your videos to them.
pornography:
title: There are many porn videos on PeerTube!
text:
- No. In October 2018, on an average instance federating with ~200 instances
and indexing ~16000 videos, only ~200 videos are tagged as NSFW (i. e. the
content is sensitive, which could be something else than pornography). Therefore,
they represent only ~1% of all the videos.
- 'Moreover, each administrator decides with which instances he wants to federate:
he has the full control of the content he wants to display on his instance.
It''s up to him to choose the policy regarding this kind of videos. He can
decide to: <ul><li>Display them</li><li>Blur the title and thumbnail</li><li>Hide
them</li></ul>'
- By default, this configuration is set to "Hide them". If some administrators
decide to display them with a blur filter for example, it's <strong>their</strong>
choice.
- Finally, any user can override this configuration, and decides if he want
to display, blur or hide these videos for himself.
- 'PeerTube is just a software: it''s not Framasoft (non-profit that develops
PeerTube) that''s responsible for the content published on some instances.'
- 'It''s up to everyone to be responsible: parents, visitors, uploaders, PeerTube
administrators to respect the law and avoid any problematic situations.'

tech:
install:
title: How do I install PeerTube?
text:
- The <a href="@:data.link.gitPT/blob/develop/support/doc/production.md">installation
guide is here</a> (only in English, for the moment).
- 'We recommend not to install PeerTube on low-end hardware or behind a weak
connection (for example, on a RaspberryPi with an ADSL connection): this could
slow down all federations.'
- 'Dont bother the developer to help you install your instance: we have a <a
href="@:link.forumPT">support forum</a> for that.'
moderation:
title: PeerTube v1.0 does not seem to me to contain all the tools necessary
for a good management of my instance.
text:
- '<blockquote>"Its outrageous and unconscious: youre releasing PeerTubes
version 1 when it doesnt contain the necessary tools to effectively manage
videos claimed by rights holders, or to effectively manage the issue of online
harassment in comments, or to effectively manage monetization through advertising,
or to (insert here your request to PeerTube). It will never work! What do
you intend to do about it?"</blockquote>'
- Youre 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").
- 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.
- '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. '
- '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 PeerTubes 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.'
- 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.
- We are working as quickly as possible to improve PeerTube, but we are doing
so with the resources we have, which means <strong>very</strong> limited.
- 'In the meantime, as an user if you feel that PeerTube 1.0 does not currently
meet your needs, its simple: dont use it right now :) (we remind you that
we dont make money developing PeerTube, and that if we obviously hope for
its success, the survival of our association doesnt depend on it).'
- As an administrator, if you are afraid of DMCA requests, there is an option
to limit the opening of registrations to people you know. You will then be
able to reopen registrations without verification once these verification
tools have been integrated, or you have developed them.
code:
title: How do I contribute to PeerTubes code?
text:
- The <a href="@:data.link.gitPT">Git repository of PeerTube is here</a>.
- You can <a href="@:data.link.gitPT/issues">create an issue</a>, contribute
to it, or even start contributing by choosing the <a href="@:data.link.gitPT/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22">easy
problems for those who begin</a>.
- If you want to help out in another way, or if you want to request a feature,
come discuss it on our <a href="@:link.forumPT">contribution forum</a>.
protocol:
title: Why does PeerTube use the ActivityPub federation protocol? Why not IPFS
/ d.tube / Steemit?
text:
- PeerTube uses ActivityPub because this federation protocol is recommended
by the W3C and is already used by the federated social network Mastodon.
- IPFS is a great technology, but it still seems very (too!) young for large
scale streaming of large files.
- After discussing it on our forum, we feel that d.tube is not free or open
source, because publishing only compiled code hinders freedom of modification.
- D.tube is based on Steem for "remuneration", it is a choice, but Steem is
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steemit#Criticism">widely criticized</a>
as <a href="https://steemit.com/steemit/@docdelux/30-days-of-steemit-here-is-my-criticism">highly
centralized</a>, and suspiciously <a href="https://steemit.com/steemit/@thecryptonews/psa-constructive-criticism-the-ugly-truth-behind-steemit">resembles
a Ponzi system</a>.
- PeerTube is free, decentralized, distributed, and does not impose any remuneration
model. This is the choice we have made, which is debatable, and others (like
d.tube) have made other choices, which have their advantages. So its up to
you to see what suits you.
