The free, self-hosted alternative to streaming platforms like Youtube and Spotify
No more Walled Gardens
If you're a Creator, syndication and user engagement are everything... The Peerhub server plugin hubs your content to hundreds of websites, communities, apps, and networks. Peerhub also sets the comment section on đź’ĄFIRE! More chatter means more sharing and discovery of your content. This gets the conversations going and monetizes them for you, as well as your audience. Reach Millions of new people on Mastodon, Hive, Pixelfed, Nostr, Dero, BSV.. +more on the way! Stream whatever you want, P2P (even 4K Livestreams). No more worries of account deletion, shadow-bans, censorship, demonetization or fees. There's 3 ways to escape the walled gardens and reach a wider audience:
1. TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR DATA; Be a Site Host or Syndicate
Install the Peerhub plugin onto your webserver and stop worrying about what you put online. EARN from every Like or Tip on Creators’ content (or your own) that you host. If you need a server, or some help with yours, we're here for you.
Trending Site Hosts this month: #1 Vigilante TV brings you well-researched, actual news, from multiple Creators. #2 CastGarden offers unbeatable Podcasting 2.0 Certified Podcast Hosting & Syndication. #3 BeeToons airs hours of new cartoons daily that you can chill with. #4 FlatEarthDave dives into the theories of our world using the Scientific Method. Learn by doing.
Content is syndicated over multiple networks P2P so the load gets distributed (similar to Napster “seeders”), saving you a ton of money on resources. Videos can stream at 2160p (4K) and radio stations can stream out audio at 320kbps! Distributed transcoding and file storage (S3/Torrent/Jackal/Arweave) is also supported so content is never siloed to just one server.
2. GET NOTICED as a Content Creator
If you're a Creator, get your content hosted on a Peerhub Site Host (yours or someone else's). Stop Youtube, Spotify, Paypal, Patreon and other middlemen from messing with your income and content; Render them obsolete! 🤔 Did you know: Pharrell Williams was only given $2700 for his world-famous song “Happy”, yet he has BILLIONS of views for that song online!
Peerhub BLASTS your content out across multiple decentralised networks. Your earnings and popularity stats get calculated algorithmically and are impossible to block or fake.. Tom MacDonald recently spoke out about this.
🎉 Massive Syndication and User Engagement are everything.. Peerhub sets the comment section on fire! Active conversation equates to more views/listens and sharing of your content. Unstoppable, real-time payments stream to your wallet automatically. Speak freely!
3. EARN MORE by Leaving a Comment
Even your audience can earn by posting thoughtful comments that get Liked and Tipped! Does Youtube, Spotify, Pandora or Netflix pay your audience for their comments? NO.
Peerhub encourages User Engagement. The ⚡ Zaps, Tips, Likes and Upvotes received on comments and content are worth money too, so being a Troll has zero benefits. Peerhub incentivizes the audience to share and engage with each other, more than any other platform in the world.
An active comment section equates to more shares and views. Once your audience realizes that they're earning income too just by contributing nice comments, it's a win-win for everyone!
What can I do with my earnings?
Spend your coins at crypto merchants (brick and mortar, and online) worldwide. Earnings are fully automated, so arguments don’t arise between Creators and Site Hosts. You do NOT need to accept any coins if you don't want to; Many haven't learned how to pay their bills with crypto yet.
Staking your coins can earn you even more and provide you with a passive income, so don't spend them all! By loaning some of your coins to various networks, those networks pay you and with zero middlemen.
The coins that you earn can also be instantly converted into other currencies if you like, at bridges such as simpleswap.io or stealthex.io and a ton of fiat exchanges around the world (for usd, eur, cad, gbp, mxn, rub, cny, etc). Market info: coingecko.com
Automated Audience Acquisition & Retention
- NO MORE ADS! Everyone hates ads. Publish quality content and you get paid. No more middlemen! Even the audience gets paid for interacting with your content.
- EXPAND YOUR REACH · Your content gets syndicated P2P to hundreds of other websites, apps and networks automatically. That can mean Millions of new eyeballs on your content.
- NO MORE BEGGING! Say goodbye to the annoying “Please Like, Comment, Subscribe, Share, and Click the bell icon” messages. Your audience earns by participating.
- EARN MORE · Everyone can earn, there are Zero Fees, and nobody can block you. The more Likes you get, the more prominent your content or comment becomes. More Syndicates = even more income. The trustless Peerhub protocols cannot be manipulated, so no more Censors, corrupt Agents, Record Labels or streaming platforms to worry about!
What’s New in Peerhub v9?
- 🎉 Aggregated User Engagement; Login to any Peerhub site with your favorite account (mastodon, hive, nostr, dero, youtube, etc) to Like, Tip, Comment and Earn.

- Content auto-import monetization and syndication; Peerhub can now optionally auto-SCRAPE your content right off of 20+ platforms (like Youtube, Apple Podcasts, Bitchute, Odysee, Rumble, etc). No more double-uploads needed, or 3rd party API reliance!
- Peerhub now generates Podcasting 2.0 Certified RSS. Creators can now reach Millions of new people! Includes elements such as chapters, transcription, extended search, social interact, podroll, instant Podping notifications and more!
- Support for MagnetBank (blockchain-secured) torrent magnets. Gets you even more views!
In Other Words...
Earn by Hosting, by creating Content, or even just by contributing quality Comments. The walled gardens don't care about you. They own your data, not you, and sell it to advertisers. They can demonetize, shadow-ban and shut you down anytime they feel like it and there's nothing you can do about it. Peerhub enables you and your audience, to say whatever you want online and actually get paid for doing it. Be unstoppable.
