"Free (price) and easy" are not the values peertube is pushing forth, so it's not really relevant. Peertube makes it so you own your infrastructure, your data, and can do whatever you decide to do. You are not subject to foreign laws like with YouTube, you are not dependent on ads that are a problem by design, you are not beholden to ecocidal capitalism to display videos, you do not have to give more power to a company that employs children and refugees to build their AI. You are building a saner world just by not using YouTube. That's kinda hard to beat.
