Very nice improvement and I hope more fediverse software starts supporting this. tl;dr popular videos are also uploaded by the viewers, thus lowering the server load, similar to Bittorrent, but all in the browser.

Atemu ( @Atemu@lemmy.ml ) 3•1 year agoThat’s cool but are the videos on Pixelfed long enough for WebP2P to work? I imagine the median video length on Pixelfed would be seconds rather than minutes as it would be on Peertube.
