I find it so goofy that people never bother to save a local backup of work they spent hours and hours curating.

Have they never ever written an essay on Microsoft Word and then lost the progress cause they never saved it on a floppy?

Videos are big. I have a YouTube channel and don't back my videos up. Quite the opposite, I regularly delete them to free up harddisk space. I do cross post them to lbry.tv though which I've found a lot better than peertube.

First time I've heard of lbry.tv - just curious, what's the main attraction for you?

Features and monetization. Peer tube instances had serious upload limits, and it’s been a while since I looked but there were some major missing features like descriptions or editing or something. I actually really like pornhub’s monetization options but there is no audience there for the videos I make. Lbry struck a balance between features and not a porn site.

I make computer security videos so there is a non negligible chance my YouTube will get deleted.

I think they are as close to uncensorable as you can get. See https://lbry.tech
