I know libtorrent added webtorrent support a while back, how does it work? I tried it in qBittorrent and Transmission, and it downloads from the webseed only

What I am trying to say is that the sharing only works if there is a sufficient amount of other people wanting to watch the video at this time. That's where the magic should happen.

I guess it would be cool if someone with a large peertube server did have stats which show performance and how much people shared between each other! Does something like this exist?
