Framasoft is based in France, and since we know how France is currently about GrapheneOS. It is not the best location for PeerTube and other open source projects to be in currently. So a move could be in order or at least decentralizing the development?

Also, not sure if it is just me but does it seem like it is last in how fast it grows, develops, and usage out of all open source social media/platforms?

Thinking and feeling like it would be beneficial for the project to move out of France and switch how it ran similiar to how Mastodon does. Owned and run by the people.

Should the project stay in France? Do you think it is fine how it is ran? In what ways can it improve? Long-term do you think Framasoft even as a non-profit can always be trusted?

Been working on open source as well so I know more people helping out would be beneficial but not fully familiar with PeerTube situation so asking here.

Thoughts?

    Did France government really say anything or was just one cop in one newspaper saying they don’t like GrapheneOS because they can’t crack it?
    That being said, Fediverse and GrapheneOS are hardly comparable, and no company anywhere will try to cover for you in an investigation, in any country if the police shows up with an order to check acc creation info and logged IPs the service will comply or will be responsible for whatever you are using it to do.

    PeerTube grows terribly because videos are larger than posts and no one wants to pay for it.

    Platforms like YouTube and Twitch tell you: “We host for free and you might earn serious buck!” Peertube tells you “Find an instance willing to host your collection and better pay them, too”. Go figure.

    Solving this issue is not trivial, but some solution is necessary if you want to make it more appealing for high quality creators. Currently, I cannot enjoy using PeerTube as I rarely can open it up and find an interesting video in seconds like I can with YouTube.

        How does this solve “No one wants to pay for it”? It’s just you paying to host instead of paying a guy to host it for you.

    Framasoft should move to USA! It would be the greatest. It’s the most beautfiul country in the world. I promise.
