I had thought that was a peertube link, but looks like it is just a YouTube redirect.

It's a piped instance link which just downloads and serves the video from YouTube. It's privacy friendly because your browser doesn't hit Google's site where they'll just further build up your ad profile.

It seems to be used quite a lot here when people can't find the video on PeerTube.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
