Hi @ll, a friend of mine is a scientist and has written many papers. Each of these papers has a lot of underlying video data (which show each experiment in detail). For example, one paper is easily 200 GB of video data. Now, my friend is looking for a free public archive to make this data publicly available, also for archiving purposes. The best recommendations he has received was to upload everything to Youtube, but I said - don't. I would like to recommend him a PeerTube instance for that but I have no clue which instance would agree to that much video data for archiving purposes. Might you have an idea? Peace out, T

Most universities have data repositories for such material. I can see why uploading to PeerTube might be interesting in addition.
