After several starts and restarts in getting the Peertube instance up and running, I have to say that it’s going quite well so far. I’m currently getting some of the old indie game spotlights added and will start to add new items to it shortly.
What I want to do is have it to be the place for upcoming indie game reviews, showcases, live stream VODs, and more. As the Indie Basement is essentially a place for all of this and content creation, I’m wanting to have the instance have the first runs of any new videos. These new releases will have an exclusive run of about two weeks (don’t quote me on this) before the video is then uploaded onto the YouTube side.
In the future I might even create a new YouTube channel as a catch-all for these but, I’m not entirely sold on it though. I’ll post the link to the site very soon as I want to finish building out the site with dedicated categories (channels in Peertube) and to find other relevant instances to set up a federation too. At this time I will not be opening it up to sign-ups, working with limited resources and infrastructure isn’t the way to go about bringing an untold number of people into the instance. I might change this in the future.
