If I understand it right.. it will be much more costly to host videocentric platform than other types of content. A serious proposal for sharing the burden of hosting will likely be vital - through funding or decentralized storage/processing. Havent heard about that yet.

the bottleneck to peertube seems to be populating and having more viewers, not hosting costs.

not sure about peertube audience size, but afaik it does have a serious subsystem of resource sharing.
