Yeah only way I see it working is if it’s more of a peer to peer / torrenting concept. As in while you use it, you are “seeding” other videos / content as well.
Does the seeding work in a personally easily controllable way, e.g. you only see the videos you watch and allow it to seed? I’m not super familiar with torrenting beyond the very basics, let alone however this might differ.
I’m thinking here mainly of making sure people aren’t just generally seeding everything in a way that would potentially make people unknowingly/unintentionally seed / party to any distribution of child abuse materials, snuff, revenge porn, or so on.

PeerTube is exactly this, it’s federated and uses WebTorrent. https://joinpeertube.org/
I recently stumbled over Odysee and am not exactly sure where to put them category wise. they are a federated service as well, aren’t they?
No, Odysee/LBRY operates on blockchain/crypto. It aims to be decentralised, and in that sense it’s bit like federation, but it’s completely different.

As far as I know, you seed videos you watch.
