Peertube already exist. If you have to upload a video to show someone on the internet it's already more convenient than youtube as you don't have to login and access with google accounts.

you can use youtube without a google account?

[–] this@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can. You can't subscribe or use it ad free but I have no issues going to YouTube and just searching for what I need. No account required.

Yes, I should have said you can't subscribe or watch add free without 3rd party software like adblockers and software like newpipe.

I don't think so. Creating accounts on Peertube is much easier as it's decentralized, some instances won't care about your data such telephone number

Also, if you make your own instance, you can fully control the data flow.
