Hey everyone,

I’m looking for an open-source alternative to YouTube that I can self-host on my own server. Ideally, it should allow me to upload and stream videos in the browser, and if possible, support features like comments, likes, and subscriptions.

So far, I’ve come across a few options:

• PeerTube – Seems solid, but I’m not sure how well it handles a large number of videos.
• Tube Archivist – More for archiving YouTube videos than hosting my own.
• MediaCMS – Looks promising, but I haven’t tried it yet.

Does anyone here have experience with these or know of any other good self-hosted solutions? I’d love something that’s well-documented and can run on a VPS.

Thanks in advance…
