@FediTips thanks for replying, appreciated. Ideally everyone should start their own server. But $100 yearly is a lot for many. For a sustainable federated structure, one could also try to have some big sturdy servers available, a government provided infrastructure, part of their information strategy, professionally run, with enough space, support and safety. Users not interested in having their own server, can just post and upload, while others create their own. Like public and private schools.

Not to be grumpy, but how can serious contentcreators be expected to upload ALSO on peertube if there is no space available, unless they go through the proces of setting up their own server? They just want to create content. And I know you're thinking "oh another one, just donate". But I'm worried that like this, despite all efforts by so many hosts, mastodon nor peertube are going to make it, that basically we're all sort of wasting our time untill another big money platform takes over. Sorry

@FediTips I tried to find a server on peertube that would allow me to upload my videos, but none of them allow an unlimited upload. The biggest server I found would let me upload a maximum of 25 videos in 4K quality and that's it. Can you please advice me on how to make your suggested back-up without having to manage my own server.
