So I feel like I’m doing peertube wrong. I’m trying to find good content, but it feels like every single instance I find is just “here’s the linux news, here’s the new linux tips, here’s the linux gossip, linux linux linux!”

And I do not give a shit about linux. I learned long ago that I’m not smart enough to figure it out. I just want to find the non-tech, non-video game content. I don’t know what I’m doing. I want to search all the instances, all at once, and see what the system recommends.

I don’t have a peertube account. I have a piefed account. I’m not against getting a peertube account, but at this point, it’s ruining the whole point of the fediverse. If I need to register for a peertube account to have a decent experience, what’s the point in having all these services be interconnected. Registering for peertube account would be the THIRD account I would have for the fediverse. But at this point, I just want to find the content.

      I don’t typically browse and peruse YouTube, mostly just check a select set of channels that I follow, so PeerTube might work well for me. Is there a way to see which (if any) of the YouTube channels I follow are available on PeerTube?

      Yeah at this point peertube is mostly a video hosting system. We still need a good discovery/finding/recommendation system. I think that could be independently developed; for example: upload the videos on peertube and then link and post them here on lemmy to promote them.
