They are already there, and someone is paying for the storage and bandwidth for what's already there. Asking for random people to start pulling videos from YouTube and uploading them to someone else's server is going to very quickly make that server go away.

And yes, I have tried Peertube. My experience is when I click a Peertube link from Lemmy, 9/10 it is a dead link.

Newest version of lemmy fixed this quite well. Take a look: https://lemmy.world/post/27751672

Old lemmy broke a lot of activityhub stuff unfortunately.
