## Demonstration
Want to see in action?
* [Demo server](http://peertube.cpy.re)
* [Video](https://peertube.cpy.re/videos/watch/f78a97f8-a142-4ce1-a5bd-154bf9386504) to see how the "decentralization feature" looks like
## Why
We can't build a FOSS video streaming alternatives to YouTube, Dailymotion, Vimeo... with a centralized software. One organization alone cannot have enough money to pay bandwidth and video storage of its server.
So we need to have a decentralized network (as [Hubzilla](https://project.hubzilla.org/page/hubzilla/hubzilla-project)([Hubzilla YunoHost](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/hubzilla_ynh)),[Friendica](http://friendi.ca/)([Friendica YunoHost](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/friendica_ynh)),[Mastodon](https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon)([Mastodon YunoHost](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/mastodon_ynh)),[Diaspora](https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora)([Diaspora YunoHost](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/diaspora_ynh))).
But it's not enough because one video could become famous and overload the server.
It's the reason why we need to use a P2P protocol to limit the server load.
Thanks to [WebTorrent](https://github.com/feross/webtorrent), we can make P2P (thus bittorrent) inside the web browser right now.
