    @meldrik to be honest I do not agree with the video, and I do not recommend it unless you are a creator.

    There is a small advantage if you host your own instance: You are owner of your subscriptions, as long as you pay the instance. But if you do not intend to upload videos this is a complete overkill.

    You can subscribe other channels without a fee:

    1. with any PeerTube account you can create on a lot of other instances

    2. with a Mastodon account or other activity pub enabled services - even though that might not be the best experience it is okay for casual subscriptions

    3. the actual killer: You do not need any account at all, because you can subscribe to any channel with RSS. Just look at the bottom of the “Subscribe” drop down. Drawback: commenting is not possible.

      Are you looking to create or just watch? You can watch without an account in the PeerTube or GrayJay apps. Just can’t interact.
