# Why aren't you using other video services like LBRY or PeerTube?
I am on LBRY: https://beta.lbry.tv/@TheLinuxGamer and I also have a BitChute mirror.
Most PeerTube instances have a data quota that just doesn't serve my channel well. My videos are high-res (4K) and I'd exceed most quotas in one or two videos.
