What keeps you away from PeerTube? What features does PeerTube lack? If you were the developer of PeerTube, how would you improve it?

I want the ability to have everything behind a login. I don't want people not signed in watching videos and wasting bandwidth.

You can. You can set a video as "internal only". So only users registered on the server, can watch it.

Yes but they won't federate out which defeats the point of peertube.

[-] meldrik@lemmy.wtf 1 points 10 months ago

True, but I wouldn’t want to have a wallen garden, like Instagram or Twitter, where it forces you to create a user.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 10 months ago

It would be instance by instance policy. I think there are many cases where an instance should only be available to users behind a login while still federating with its network.
