About

Free software to take back control of your videos. PeerTube, developed by Framasoft, is the free and decentralized alternative to video platforms, providing you over 400,000 videos published by 60,000 users and viewed over 15 million times PeerTube aspires to be a decentralized and free/libre alternative to video broadcasting services. Our aim is not to replace them, but rather to simultaneously offer something else, with different values. PeerTube is not meant to become a huge platform that would centralize videos from all around the world. Rather, it is a network of inter-connected small videos hosters. Anyone with a modicum of technical skills can host a PeerTube server, aka an instance. Each instance hosts its users and their videos. In this way, every instance is created, moderated and maintained independently by various administrators.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • PeerTube v4 and higher is awesome. Great p2p tech. It even comes with an easy to use docker container. Any server admin with basic skills can install and configure PeerTube. Remote storage and (soon) remote transcoding will be supported as well. You can't get much more decentralised than that. Just fyi, there's also a free plugin for PeerTube server now called "Hive-Tube". Any video or podcast etc that you upload, or import from Youtube (and other sites) can be auto-monetized, providing you (and even your viewers/listeners if desired) with passive income.
  • Free & Open Source. Easy to use. Decentralized & federated. P2P streaming to reduce network load by sharing bandwidth between users. Community driven development.

Cons

  • Cons? I honestly can't think of any. Remote transcoding will be nice too, but that isn't really needed anyway unless you run a huge site like youtube or something.
  • Hosting instance needs lots of script installation - not easy for most users.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 💯 Very User-Friendly 💯 Easy to Adapt 💯 Comprehensive features 💯 Not resource demanding 💯 No installations--just go to the site! 💯 Can be customized!
  • Great for live streams, you have the option of live casting to multiple platforms, I like the option of paying a monthly or annual fee. You can stream from all the major social media outlets as well.
  • This software is like no other. It allows people to be able to stream across various platforms and has a professional setup, similar to news channels. The split screen feature is great. StreamYard also allows for information to be displayed to viewers on a scrolling marquee.
  • I host a talk show and recently tried StreamYard after using another streaming application for almost two years. It is easy to use. The best part is the ease in playing my brand's video before my interviews. No more sharing a screen to do so as with another streaming service! Love it! Further, it is a plus that we can share our guests' names and even a ticker tape. I am still learning. My first live went without a hitch.
  • I love that StreamYard is so user friendly. I like to think I'm techie, but I'm not really. However, StreamYard makes is so easy to livestream to multiple platforms at once and the platform itself makes me look like a techie. I've received so many compliments on how cool my livestreams look.

Cons

  • One thing that I find missing is to be able to have a feature where we get to have a background music in our streams, as of the moment what we do is we do load it straight from share screen then just hide the share screen window.
  • I don't have cons at this time as I just started using the program.
  • Initially, it was difficult for me to connect the app to Facebook. Facebook made it difficult to find on their platform. Another problem that I noticed is that there’s a delay from when a viewer types something in the chat until when it appears on screen.
  • This is not a major con but when guests share their screen, I have to admit their screen into the studio.
  • Um...there's nothing I don't like about StreamYard.
