Can anyone recommend a peer tube instance worth trying? Preferably one that allows registration.
I’m on Tilvids and it works great.
I’m running an instance and as a software it’s OK. But you never know if your subscription tab has nothing new because there is a bug in the ActivityPub code or just because nobody is posting on peertube.
Another thing is that most of my video watching I do on the TV but there is no app for android on the TV which give you a UI like the many apps streaming providers offer. So at least for me it’s limited to very seldom watching something on the laptop when I remember.
Discover ability is another problem, similar to Mastodon it’s difficult to find new people to watch. That is solved much better on Lemmy with the communities.
Dropping SepiaSearch here as well. Peertube search.
Peertube is really really great.
I think what would help a lot is if creators had the ability to say you can watch x amount of videos without supporting me and then you support me through whatever platform.
It would then be really viable for creators and consumers. The creators are getting such a small amount of money from every video watched on Youtube, they would get more there.
What’s the difference between this and Framatube which has a similar logo and is an option on Newpipe?
Framatube is Framasoft’s PeerTube instance
The biggest problem I have with peertube besides videos buffering or simply not loading at all is the fact creators just cross post their youtube content which is a worse experience than just watching on youtube with sponsor block.
