Would it be possible for such a thing to exist? Does it exist already? I feel these need to be addressed as i believe youtube is about to follow reddit, meta and Twitter and tighten up on 3rd parties. So with that being a possible scenario, how would we deal with it as a open source community?

    Peertube and Pixelfed are capable, but would explode at scale. Video hosting requires deep pockets once people need to save and stream large amounts of video data. Text and still images you can host for pennies on the user per month. It kind of storage and network connections you have to keep up for video are more badass.
