Can someone tell me in the #fediverse if this #threads thing is #satanicpanic or a real thing? #fedihelp

✍️ Edit: Mostly Satanic Panic, #mastodon.

Since video hosting requires so many more resources than image hosting, I have these questions about #PeerTube :

1. What are the hosting costs of PeerTube instances?
2. How do these instances deal with financing themselves?
3. As I understand it, if a Fediverse user views content from a different instance, then this content will be downloaded to their own instance. Is this understanding correct?
4. If so, is this also true for PeerTube videos - which means that, say, a Mastodon user following a PeerTube account will cause a lot of additional load (and thus hosting costs) for their home instance?
