D.tube makes the browser download from a gateway (ipfs.io) using HTTP.

That's true! But nothing is stopping them from putting in js-ipfs into dtube and leveraging everyone who is watching the videos to help host them as well.

You can set it to connect to your own gateway.

Doesn't change the fact that your browser doesn't connect to the ipfs network
