I love the idea and have been wanting a good OSS YT alternative for some time now. My initial impression from looking at the code and browsing the demo site is that this project is very much in it's infancy and has a long way to go before I'd consider running it in production as an admin or frequenting the site as a viewer. E.g. code smell, poor comment functionality, UX issues, minimal documentation and examples... Something I think would help bring in contributors is an architectural diagram and/or blog post on how the subsystems fit together. Best of luck to all involved, it won't be easy but it's certainly a worthy goal!

Hi bavell thanks for the feedback. The codebase itself is pretty robust in my opinion but the documentation it sparse at the moment, it's still very much in its infancy as an OS project, I mean a bunch of really cool features that are built in are not even mentioned at the moment because I haven't had time to get to it yet. So hopefully we can get that documentation to a point where developers feel happy to fork and join in the development, that is the big goal, but thanks for your feedback!
