Third-party or self hosted GitLab FTW.
Youtube is kind of hard to replace, though. There's attempts but I'm skeptical they'll go far.
Not with that attitude they won't!
How many YouTube competitors have risen up and died since it first started? PeerTube is fine but there's no AdSense so the really big an medium sized ones won't move over. There aren't enough viewers for sponsorships to be worth while so it's purely passion that will drive people to upload onto it, which is great but it basically limits the uploads to people who are techy enough or care enough about decentralization to go out of their way to not get payed.
What about just the bandwidth and storage requirements? Any news on that?
