Where does YouTube store the data?

YouTube aka Google own Datacenters.

They store it on servers……….. Servers!!!

Or on HARD DISKS many hard disks

SSDd many SSDs!

WebTorrent is the answer you seek (endorsed by Fiatjaf)

I think IPFS is also a great alternative.

Fiatjaf hates IPFS (though don’t ask me to explain his reasoning, I know nothing about IPFS)

He hates DHT and finds IPFS slow and unusable. I remember on a post or podcast he mentioned this.

Self host your videos. We need a VIEWER.

This is true, done well, the viewer would be able to interpret every type of linked video
