@khleedril You could look at the specification (bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0003.h), but maybe it would make more sense to take a look at #webtorrent (webtorrent.io/) or #qbittorrent (qbittorrent.org/) and either use their work directly or imitate what they do. WebTorrent is what PeerTube uses, btw.

@dave well, it uses some #WebTorrent "magic" to do #RFC8188...

  • Sadly that's the only part #FLOSS'd yet - they didn't FLOSS their client nor backend yet...

I have been planning this since last fall, but the coming #YouTube lockdown has finally gotten me to request an account on a #PeerTube instance! To start I will reupload content from my old channels, but I hope to eventually return to livestreaming (also on PeerTube and/or with #Owncast, since I won't be using #Twitch any more either). I am also thinking about getting a #seedbox and having magnet links to torrents of all my stuff, but since I know that PeerTube uses #webtorrent, I'm wondering if I can just get a magnet link for my video from my PeerTube instance and pass it to the seedbox.

Did you know that the #FSF has a #PeerTube account? PeerTube is a decentralized, federated video platform powered by #ActivityPub and #WebTorrent, and you'll find us on the #Framatube instance: u.fsf.org/36m

Is anyone working on #P2P server software compatible with #ActivityPub? It seems natural to be able to donate network resources instead of cash, and would make services even more difficult to censor.

Assuming browsers actually had mainstream support for it, would #IPFS or #Webtorrent be better for displaying large (static) media?

Also, why aren't we using WebTorrent to syndicate comments across the fediverse if the number of receivers goes above a threshold?

@Free_Press

Yeah, pretty common across most platforms and instances in the #Fediverse when you use #masto for #serving_media - there's waaay mo betta ways in the Fediverse better suited to the task.

Just sayin', in case you want your content to reach an audience.

And maybe even consider just getting off #mastopub completely for a better platform - there are many way better #ActivityPub powered platforms on the Fediverse to choose from for your regular publishing as well 💪🙂👍

Masto really has gone downhill quite a bit - the interminable wait times for your profile stream to load on busy servers and the ever shitty streaming capabilities it's always beleaguered #Fedizens with.

Here is a "hello World" video for me trying Peertube!

I am still pretty new at this, but figured I would give it a go since a few friends and students told me I should just make some videos about the stuff I make.

The idea of doing this completely off of YouTube in a decentralized, anti YouTube production value manner excites me.

My voiceover for my first video completely didn't work- hence the V2.2.... about to go off the grid camping for a few days :)

@cheeaun @null

Maybe consider either something purpose built for the occasion like an obfuscation system / sanitizing system that removes privacy mining & tracking like invidious does, or simply choosing a #Fediverse platform that is actually designed from the ground up for just this sort of thing like #PeerTube, of which there are thousands of instances, and can actually clone YouTube content with a single click and sanitize it so that it's safe for people to view. It's kinda obvious dude.

On the #Android side of things, #FediLab does this automatically to protect its users via this very mechanism (leveraging Invidious). That way you can still utilize ABC's (Google's/YouTube's) bandwidth for CDN/content delivery for the user.

Fedilab can also utilize PeerTube directly, natively.

Just sayin', coz as shitty a solution like mastodon is, putting all that burden upon a single, deprecated monolithic silo instance like mastodon.social isn't really a solution at all, it's using a single Fediverse server's hosting subscriptions' bandwidth to serve your customers on that providers' dime - @gargron@mastodon.social 's dime.

Even twenty years ago we called that sort of #scraping "stealing", and it's considered stealing to this day. 🤘💀🤘

Are you comfortable making Eugen's company, as corrupt as it is with no less than two founders of #Twitter on it's new BoD, responsible for paying the bandwidth charges for YOUR users?

I'm just saying, bruh! This shit ain't free, and you know that. Duh!

Both #Odysee and #PeerTube are platforms for decentralized video sharing, but they have different approaches and features.

Odysee is built on the #LBRY protocol, which is a blockchain-based system. LBRY uses a decentralized ledger to manage content distribution and monetization.

PeerTube is a decentralized video platform based on peer-to-peer technology using #WebTorrent. It is designed to be federated, meaning multiple independent instances can interoperate.

Do #torrent and #webtorrent overlap at all?
Is there a torrent client that can seed both? I've seen a couple of unresolved issues on clients like qbittorrent, but I'm wondering if there's one people use.
Same question, but also for the tracker side, is there tracker software that both clients can talk to?

#Fediverse-Plattform #PeerTube

#PeerTube ist eine dezentralisierte, freie, föderierte #Software für #Video-Plattformen, betrieben via #ActivityPub und #WebTorrent, welches Peer-to-Peer-Technik verwendet, um die individuelle Server-Belastung zu reduzieren, während Videos geschaut werden. Ein Programmierer startete 2017 die Entwicklung von PeerTube und wird seit 2018 vom französischen gemeinnützigen Verein Framasoft unterstützt. Die Instanz der Entwickler heißt #FramaTube.

@moftasa Is it possible to seed them, too? I know that it wasn't before, but I'm not sure now they've switched from WebTorrent to HLS.

I feel like users being able to easily seed and help the network, is part of what could make Peertube hosting significantly cheaper for small instances.
