Self-hosted personal video platform (meganice.online)

I like making videos from family holidays and events and such, and I obviously don't want to put that on YouTube.

So I'd like to host something to upload these videos to, and then share links with family.

Is PeerTube the thing for this?

Looking for something lightweight and not too complicated.

Jellyfin would work for that too.

No matter which solution you end up just make sure you have no compromises on security.

You could check out MediaCMS. I have no idea how lightweight it is compared to PeerTube but something to try.

Not to completely hijack this, but I’ve also been looking for a video platform for a private community. I want my friends to be able to upload too, but I’m not interested in federating or having anything public. Peertube seems great but I’m not sure it’s what I need.

Although it would also be great if my friends could help seed the videos so I don’t have to provide all the bandwidth.

You could look at owncloud / nextcloud. You can create folders and share them (read-only) to family members or even read-write so other people can upload their videos.

I found that streaming videos from nextcloud doesn't really work well. I don't really know about other services to self-host videos like that, though.
