YouTube2PeerTube - a bot to automatically YouTube channels to #PeerTube channels.
Check it out. Many people are not yet ready to get rid of YT due to network effects, etc. But you want to be prepared to make the jump at any time, right. And you want to help @peertube grow to great heights, of course :)
This bot by @mister_monster helps you do so with ease.
I just added it to Awesome Humane Tech and #ActivityPub developer tools watchlist.

@humanetech @peertube @mister_monster I would just like a way to use a spare computer and bandwith to help instances in a torrent-like fashion. Maybe like select videos to download and help seed. Is this possible to do?
@PestToast
This is actually a phenomenal idea though now that I think about it, especially on a federating network, maybe something like hash addressing videos and allowing duplicates to share server load, kind of like what IPFS does. You should go to framagit and put in a feature request if they don't have something like this planned already.

@humanetech
This is very interesting. Sounds a lot like IPFS? I'd be interested in knowing how it differs.

@mister_monster there's also follow-up research, like Distributed Mutable Containers:

A good place to ask questions is on #Matrix at:

You might check out ERIS, which is being researched by @pukkamustard as part of the #openengiadina #activitypub project:

@cj started evaluating in #golang here https://github.com/cjslep/eris (for future use in https://go-fed.org maybe), and there may be more impls underway.
