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.

I just started using Clipable recently and it’s pretty neat, it’s basically a self-hosted clone of streamable.com

Jellyfin would work for that too.

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

PeerTube would definitely work for that.

Although it might be a bit overkill, especially if you’re the only one that will be uploading videos. If you want to go with a super lightweight setup, just find a good ffmpeg command to transcode into a web-safe format, and then just throw in a <video> element on an HTML page.

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