    Yes, that’s also why bittorrent (which PeerTube runs on, by the way) is a figment of our collective imaginations, impossible to viably implement.

      Torrenting was created precisely to solve the bandwidth problem of monolithic servers. You very obviously have no idea how torrents (or PeerTube for that matter) works.

        Was my sarcasm not thick enough?

        My point was that PeerTube works just fine because BitTorrent is viable.

          But it’s not. People don’t upload as much as they download. Also internet connections are inferior in the upload speed.
