Created a guide over the weekend on hosting a podcast with PeerTube. Going with Spotify/YouTube is tempting for many, but they may not have realized how easy/affordable PeerTube has become for hosting and maintaining complete control of a feed.

Unfortunately if you want to run a video podcast you need to also upload to YouTube and Spotify manually and directly. Because they're 2 of the 3 biggest platforms, and because fuck RSS I guess.

You don't need to. Content is perfectly discoverable without them. Just about the only real benefit is having the "extra storage". And nowadays it's pretty dangerous, as at least Youtube hallucinates edits for uploaded casts and stuff without the creators's consent or knowledge.

It's really not. Spotify and YT together comprise about 70% of the market.
