The biggest issue I’ve always heard people say when it comes to replacing a video hosting service like YouTube is needing storage space and bandwidth.
I feel like ipfs, the interplanetary file system, could be leveraged to do this but it would require a concerted effort to make a fast, stable, reliable, and federated YouTube replacement, and I imagine that we would need people to financially support it.
I never said that it was free storage. I said that it could be a solution to the video storage issue
I mean, if a million people each offered 100 GB of storage, you could store an awful lot of video.
