Peertube, what it is and what it isn't

hi,

I just saw a video and bumped into Peertube, and of course I like it.

It looks like a great thing that could shape the culture.

My impressions however, are mixed.

I would like to ask,

is it a live project?

is Peertube a video-server software which connects servers?

How do we install Peertube on a Debian server? For example…

What are the hardware and bandwidth requirements?
per, say, 1 new video a week for 1000 viewers?
of whom 100 will watch at the same time?
(for example)

What does “a platform” mean?
A video sever “instance” ?

Is there a strategic plan as to how to develop Peertube (and into what kind of thing)?

Thanks very much in advance!

Peter
