There is the issue that video hosting does cost a lot of money.

I looked into creating a platform where videos are crowd hosted.

Turns out the main limiting factor is ISP bandwidth. If the average upload speed is around 10 MB/s, the average video bandwidth is also 10 MB/s, so for every viewer there would have to be one hoster. ISPs don't prioritize upload speeds.

The only hope would be to run the hoster on every single client viewing any video or on the website at all, website view or otherwise, relying primarily on temporary Chrome caches. That's not even tackling the issue that people don't just adopt (I call it "vegan") software for no reason.
