PeerTube can handle everything but 6 (chat), and if you use your own instance no one can do a DMCA takedown. Peer to peer streaming will keep it fast for everyone.

Edit: since there's some interest in PeerTube as a solution, I'll add that running your own PeerTube instance will set you back $5/mo. for up to 25gb of videos.

A free but DMCA susceptible solution is to just upload the video to BitChute or PeerTube (someone else's instance) or another platform and assume that they won't take it down for 24h at which time movie night will already be over. But you know what they say- if it is to be, then it's up to me.

running your own PeerTube instance will

make you personally liable for whatever copyrighted material you upload and share?

Rather be a small fish in the sea than the whale in the pool.

A free but DMCA susceptible solution is to just upload the video to BitChute or PeerTube (...) at which time movie night will already be over.

dis. Lowers the virtually non-existent risk even further.

So from what I understand this comes down to a peertube instance or BitChute. I'm leaning more towards BitChute atm.

If worst comes to worst we could just torrent the thing, but I'd really prefer it be a streaming service.
