Is PeerTube dead or is discoverability bad?
-

I'm so glad you pointed this out. I did not have this enabled on mine and I forgot about this option completely. I just enabled it.

-
The that's a shit solution.
-
Then find another instance…
-
Isn’t it the exact same thing on YouTube?
You have a user account, which can have x numbers of channels.
-
In that case issue is some instances do not allow global search and that's why search will limit to only channels you follow and your instance.

I just rejoined PeerTube after I had a quick look years ago, and it's gotten way better since then, actually. I found out Space Quest Historian is on it, too!
But yeah, discoverability isn't good. Lack of an algorithm also makes bingewatching impossible - for better and worse, I guess.
As you linked them, I'd also recommend peertube.wtf - they even reacted very quickly when I reported a transphobic german conspiracy channel/server.

That's my instance!

Uhm… entitlement much?

Thank you very much! I love the cooperation in the fedi.

Oh
Well, you are doing a great job, and I like what I have seen so far! Keep up the good work!

If I go to the TILvids channels, the last 6 months of videos are missing.

How about basic usability considerations? Nobody is going to switch if this is the user experience. And if no users are subscribing and interacting why would content creators spend time posting to it?
If people want it to be a thriving community than it needs functionality that makes it a community. I shouldn't have to creat an account on a server I don't want content from in hopes that I'll be able to subscribe and interact with a server I do want content from.
I'm an established fediverse user, I have been rolling my own Linux servers for decades. I'm perfectly capable of dealing with imperfect systems. This is a shit user experience and if nobody says so it will never be fixed and peertube will wither and die.

Its growing like crazy. Try the app they just released. It uses some search that works better than instance search
-
Do you have an example?
If I go to The Linux Experiment via peertube.wtf, I can see many years of videos.

Although I do understand the idea. but you really need to check your ego, mate.
Just offer help or suggest different ways than it is currently done. If you have the faintest idea of hosting and/or programming, this is not how to get your way.
So stop bitching and start working or shut the fuck up.
