A PeerTube platform for general use, hosted in northern Europe.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.wtf/post/15732861

First of all, let me apologize to those people who was affected when PeerTube.wtf initially went down.

I’ve been working this past month on building and setting up a fresh version of PeerTube.wtf and this time, I won’t be relying on decentralized storage 🙃 🙃 🙃

I’ve been reading a couple of threads on Lemmy, to better understand what people want expect to be able to do on a PeerTube server, so here goes:

  • PeerTube.wtf is a platform for general use. Every topic is welcome.

  • The Global Search Index is enabled. This means that the search bar will show results from almost 900 PeerTube servers.

  • Remote URI/handle search is enabled. This means, if you know the URL/handle of a channel, that’s not part of the Global Search Index, you can still find it via the search bar and subscribe to the channel.

  • The Public Index is enabled. This means that PeerTube.wtf will federate with almost a 1000 PeerTube servers.

  • Audio-only, 360p, 720p, 1080p and 1440p is enabled. This means that videos uploaded, is provided in these resolutions.

  • Video transcription is enabled. Will Automatically create subtitles for uploaded/imported VOD videos.

  • Live streaming is enabled. Streams are transcoded in 720p and 1080p at 60 FPS.

  • A user has 100GB of storage. This is obviously not sustainable, but is subject to change.

FAQ

.wtf?

Yea, it stands for “What The Fediverse”. What else could it possibly stand for, that sound as cool?

Where is the server hosted?

It’s hosted in Denmark, at my residence. I have 100% ownership and control over it.

What’s your specs, bro? The server is assembled inside an Inter-Tech 2U-2404S, with a:

  • AMD Ryzen 3 1200 @ 4 cores
  • 16GB of RAM
  • nVidia Quadro P600 (hardware transcoding)
  • 2x120GB SSDs in raid 1 for OS
  • 2x4TB HDDs in raid 1 for the video storage

4TB of storage ain’t much

That’s true, but I will be upgrading the disks eventually.

Why no 4K??

4K takes a lot of space and the majority of users don’t have a 4K monitor. In the future, it might change.

I’ve probably forgotten something, but yea… Enjoy.

    this right here. So many people say “Well it’s legal in my state” … No what that means is that State officials will not arrest you for doing it, a Federal official can and will arrest you for it if they wanted to. Thats the biggest reason why most of your pot shops don’t accept bank/credit cards. Because that makes them more open to federal insight and regulation.

    Currently the usage of it isn’t a concern of the federal system, so while it’s illegal they are not actively enforcing it, but that can change at any moment, and you can bet your ass that if they needed some more dirt on someone, they would use that to their advantage for a search.
