The Peertube project has changed name and git hosting website.

The project (and package) is now called: Cuttlefish

The source code and development is currently being done here:

 https://gitlab.shinice.net/artectrex/Cuttlefish

And the project description slightly changed, also the project is now
aiming GTK4:

> Cuttlefish
> Cuttlefish is a free (as in freedom) client for PeerTube, the
> federated video hosting service. It is Free Software as specified by
> the GPL, version 3 (or later).
> The logo was made using a representation of a cuttlefish by Pixelz
Studio (Distributed under the Creative Commons CCBY license).

> What is this?
> Cuttlefish is a client for PeerTube. PeerTube is a federated
video hosting service and uses WebTorrent - a version of BitTorrent that
runs in the browser - to help serve videos to users.
Cuttlefish is a desktop client for PeerTube, but will work on
GNU/Linux-based phones
> (like the Librem 5 or Pinephone) as well. We want the experience of
watching PeerTube videos and using PeerTube in general to be better, by
making a native application that will become the best and most efficient
way to hook into the federation of interconnected video hosting
services.
> Eventually, it will allow people to continue sharing watched videos with
other PeerTube users for longer periods of time, instead of discarding
the video when done watching. It will also help bridge PeerTube's gap
between the - now separated - BitTorrent and WebTorrent networks by
speaking both of those protocols.

> Dependencies, protocols
> We use GTK4 for the UI, with libhandy to support mobile form-factors.
We will use libtorrent to speak the WebTorrent and BitTorrent protocols
(since libtorrent now also supports WebTorrent). GStreamer will handle
the video decoding. We use libsoup for interacting with the PeerTube API.
> Cuttlefish is written in C++, but using GTK in C (instead of with gtkmm).
