>Peertube's UX could be better, but it doesn't present itself as a Youtube competitor, does it?
That's a pretty stupid question, isn't it? If we replace your word "competitor" with the word I used, "alternative", then yes, it does.
>But it's not Youtube and never will be. Pretending that it can be defeats the purpose.

>As does an overly simplified UX that hides the system capacity underpinning the technology (20GB limit). It will feel like a bait and switch when a newly converted user runs up against the limits of decentralized solutions, because they were not educated about that before.
99.9% of people will never care about "the system capacity underpinning the technology".
