I've been looking for a solution for storing and backing up the videos from [my YouTube channel][0].
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then, I found Peertube.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A distributed platform for hosting and sharing videos - similar to Mastodon.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I've found Peertube instances created by other YouTubers like [lukesmithxyz][2] and [Veronica Explains][3].
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now [my homelab is up and running][1] and I'm self-hosting production services like this website and my Forgejo instance, I wanted to host my own Peertube instance to back up my videos and provide an alternative place for people to watch them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I'm using NixOS for my homelab, which has options for Peertube, so setting it up was easily.
|
||
|
|
||
|
My homelab configuration is public in my [nix-config][4] directory, so you can see how I have configured it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can also see the videos on my Peertube at <https://videos.oliverdavies.uk>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I plan on doing more videos and live streams soon, which will also be uploaded to my Peertube.
