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.
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.
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
