@geerlingguy@mastodon.social needs to sync his content. It shouldn’t cost him much (if anything). If he has viewers willing to watch him on peertube, but they simply can’t and they are forced to watch him on youtube. You can’t build viewers on peertube by waiting for others or not uploading it to it.
That’s basically the case for everbody on youtube going “but there’s nobody on peertube”. Yeah, it’ll probably stay that way if you don’t upload to peertube. That’s a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Probably wouldn’t cost him anything, except opportunity cost and server resources, which both would probably be next to nothing considering the size of the userbase. But it’s up to him if he wants to do that or not.
The main thing is, to make it a viable option it would need at least thousands of viewers per video, and I’d need to figure out a new way to market that to any potential sponsors (or build up my Patreon/GH/direct support to make up for the vast gap in ad/sponsorship dollars).

That’s a pleonasm. Of course he can decide whether he wants to be part of the solution or not.
Yeah…thats why I said that…
