Viewers don't install anything. That would be the content creator here because the question is "as a content creator who wants to self host, what can I use?", but that could also be someone the content creator knows, or someone providing a PeerTube instance for content creators.
PeerTube is a piece of open source software meant to build a YouTube-like platform, with optional federation (and P2P to allow servers to offload some bandwidth to viewers, but I don't know how well this works in practice with the widespread asymmetrical or mobile internet connections). It is not for the viewer to install.
