PeerTube: free video-sharing software by French non-profit Framasoft. Self-hostable, ActivityPub-compatible, no surveillance. Run your own YouTube.
PeerTube says it is free software, not a proprietary formula owned by Vivendi/Bolloré (Dailymotion). Dailymotion's own page says it is social video. PeerTube is software developed by Framasoft, a French non-profit. You install it on a web server to run your own video site. Each site is run and moderated by its owner, and sites can connect to each other through ActivityPub. PeerTube says it has no advertising and no tracking, and that it is free and open source.
Dailymotion calls itself social video. PeerTube is software you install on a web server to create your own video-hosting site, and its website says it decentralizes video storage and decision-making. PeerTube can also copy a channel from another platform.
