I fully support this. Unlike Rossmann's platform, this isn't scraping YouTube and reposting videos without ads. This is a genuine competitor to YouTube using a decentralized network. Great! Keep it up! If I were a creator, I would definitely use this. The peer-to-peer aspect of it is fantastic, especially for live streaming.
AND you can subscribe with mastodon (and probably all other AP protocol using services soon).
We do still need a more streamlined content discovery process. I need to be able to have peertube recommend me stuff I might want to see if I so decide.
Btw, I‘m not a hater. I run a peertube instance myself: https://peertube.giftedmc.com
Send federation request to your instance :)
I just checked it out, scrolled down the main page. Looks good - well two videos popped up a dozen times but that also happens here.
The only thing I wish it (and YouTube) had was a description instead of just thumbnail and title.
Thats no problem. You can just add css to change those things iirc. Be the change you want to see. :)
