WebTorrent (https://webtorrent.io/) is built upon WebRTC, but I believe PeerTube should fallback to simple HTTP mp4. There is a download link handy that you can open in the browser, vlc, mpv or your favorite video…
It's not P2P, it's federated. Anybody can host an instance and probably that one has low bandwidth and isn't mirrored by other instances. Instances like https://tilvids.com/ or https://video.ploud.fr/ have better…
It does use Webtorrent by default (it can be turned off).
Is this comparable to IPFS running on I2P?
It depends on the configuration of the server. Some disable Webtorrent (probably because it doesn't support HLS). When they do that then I think it pulls from the federation, which then depends on how many have mirrored…
Please not mailinglists. They are unbrowsable and who likes getting their inbox spammed in order to follow a discussion? What's more, not everybody follows etiquette: - reply and just keep the original message at the…
I'm a little split on it because they don't use IPFS. It would be great if they had a button to "mirror" or "contribute bandwidth", because that I would do. I have a few VPSs contributing bandwidth to other smaller…
It's not JS or node that's the problem, it's the JS ecosystem. Badly or too broadly defined dependencies can (and do) lead to pulling a new version of a dep that introduced a breaking API change and tada, you have to…
I'd go even one step further: EOL software and hardware should be forced to be open-hardware (at least open schematics) or opensource. If you're not willing to support a product anymore then it should not be possible…
That's going to take a while. But at least the linux kernel is starting to integrate Rust. It's doubtful they'll rewrite the whole thing in Rust, but getting it in there is a start. I know the Chromium team was…

1. Other OSes (at least linux) have user keychains. 2. Once malware is running as your user, how do you expect to protect against that even with a keychain? They can log all your keystrokes, extract certificates and…
While watching live, probably not, but once downloaded they lose value, don't they?
Considering the current system and real options that they have right now, what are they supposed to do if they want to earn money (or even a living) making videos that will make you happy? Perhaps more importantly,…
Will this set a precedent for other countries or economic regions to follow suit? I could see France for example pointing to SK as a successful model and implementing it. Probably other EU powers will disagree, but they…
I'm reading the comments here and it seems like quite a few people are disgusted but not surprised by this behavior. My question to them: has it changed / will it change your behavior and what you buy? It's easy to…
