What type of site do you hope becomes popular on the Fediverse next?
I use FB because my family is on their.
My feed is almost entirely not my family, but "suggested" posts, and it made me realize I really hope something becomes popular to replace FB next and my family moves there.

I do understand how torrenting works, it only works because the total amount of upload bandwidth being made available is enough to satisfy the demand for download bandwidth. As you get to larger and larger groups of users, the proportion of people willing to seed after their download finishes drops.
Also keep in mind that most ISPs give their users extremely low upload bandwidth relative to their download pipe, and you have an poorly scalable solution. At least if you're talking anywhere within a few orders of magnitude of what YouTube handles.
peertube has everyone currently watching a video join the swarm. you just don't seem to understand why we keep raising peertube and torrenting in the same sentence
Everyone currently watching the video will not have enough total upload bandwidth to support the download demand, especially when you move to resolutions higher than 1080
do you have a graph I can look at?
Happy?
no. this doesn't seem to be actual data.
You asked for a graph and I gave you a graph. If you can't be bothered to research the disparity in residential upload vs download speeds for yourself, that's on you.
your bad attitude is very convincing.
