Poe's new league!
Well, it's true. I'm open to suggestions, feel free to share.
Faster, cleaner ans lighter. It's faster because it's lighter. It's lighter because it's made to be efficient rather than selling stuffs to you. It's cleaner because it can delete its temp files by itself, something windows still doesn't want to do.
Will it be native on gnu/linux this time?
Xfce of course!
The main challenge is resisting the urge to install Linux on your own. Because you will need help at some point, so start now by asking for help.
And then, when you don't find the solution by yourself don't waste time and ask for help.
In time you will get it enough to know what you're doing.
The Dark Mod of course!
Here is the study : https://www.insee.fr/fr/statistiques/4238589?sommaire=4238635 It's in French, I didn't find something in English (maybe in the IPCC studies ). 47% of digital impact comes from users terminals (mostly from smartphone manufacturing).
Yes, but it doesn't mean low tech hardware should always be replace by new ones.
I honestly doesn't understand why everybody here seems to think efficiency=ecology. Mass manufacturing new hardware have a big ecological impact. As I said before things aren't magically replaced by better ones. Old unused tech ends up burning in pile in Africa or Asia.
What's the point of using things like YouTube that keeps promoting 4k (needs for better screen), instant access, streaming over download, advertising, things that have a judge ecological impact.
I'm pretty sure the average successful YouTube content creators can invest in one computer to host his own content on peertube. For start that's all what is needed.
Video storage is a false problem, creators already store their content locally (to not lose the work if there is any issue).
On the technical side, others have answer that question here but in short:
- decentralised with peer to peer means that the more a video is shared the more it will be available, even with small size pipes (when I'm watching your content, others can watch it through me),
- you don't have to pay for hudge and hardware so less money wasted, but it needs a strong network of pipes, which can improve internet navigation as a all,
- instances are nodes of a network, if one fails the others stays up,
- better scalability cause p2p,
- peertube can run on rather old tech so I'd say it's more efficient.
I will need more precise questions for better answers.

People are staying on YouTube and enduring ads right now... Plus if Threads is federated they will be a part of the fedi, so no more reason to change. Why change to another instance, if you get on Threads without doing nothing and already are on the biggest instance ?
For the growing possibilities check what happened to XMPP. Is XMPP growing better now ? I don't think so...
People won't leave YouTube because content creators don't want them to. That's it.
