That doesn't sound like it's an incredibly difficult problem to solve from a technical standpoint, if the creator is the one being hit. Just need either a software package -- or, if the limitation here is content creator bandwidth, service -- that pushes a video to multiple streaming video providers.

Might be an issue for third-parties creating mirrors of YouTube content, though.

Yep thats whats happening here by the sound of it. TILVids is a very small instance that shares donated $$ with their creators. Its a very good way to try and keep creators on the platform.

Are there any clients that support multiple instances? It would improve my feed if I would see content from several instances at once.

They all do, but if im honest, I subscribe using mastodon to have a peertube "List".

This is what it looks like:

Interesting. Gotta try that.

I have P2Play installed. It only supports 1 instance at a time. 🤷
