Basically, you can set up your PeerTube server to mirror videos from your federated network according to algorithms (and also by adding videos manually).
PeerTube uses the WebTorrent protocol, so that a video that gets super popular isn’t as likely to crash the server it’s on or essentially DDOS it. In this case, my server has a significant portion of HDD space set aside for some servers I trust to have quality content, so that recent videos, trending videos and their overall most watched videos are mirrored by mine (rotating them in and out automatically). The server will be a peer seeding the video while it is watched anywhere, thus reducing the load on the original server, and making the video more resilient against uptime failure of the original server.

I don’t know anything about Peertube. What does this meme mean?
