That’s one of the use-cases I’ve had in mind. You have your site, you have a video. If you posted your video to your site though PeerTube (or really any implementation of ActivityPub), both your direct site viewers AND anyone searching PeerTube (et al) would see it.
If lots of people did that, you have a basis for a version of distributed YouTube. Small creators’ (or people just messing around) videos might load slower or only have lower bandwidth options (resolution), but larger, focused creators (CorridorCrew, Kurzgesagt, SciShow, etc) would have more options through viewer support and collaborations.

Yes, that fits my own mental model of the online world I’d like to see.
