Admittedly a risky crosspost, but cannot find conflicting community rules. I believe the possible discussion justifies it.

Or 'What is PeerTube lacking that you simply cannot do without?'

I believe it's a safe assumption that fediverse users want to move away from the monopolies and closed gardens so often associated with video streaming, and yet it's not a task that's ever been made easy. Maybe an ounce of inspiration is the cue we need, and so my question to you is; What's Stopping you from using PeerTube?

On YouTube there's the algorithm. Watch one video and yeah half the recommendations are right wing trash and pseudosience but there may be something good somewhere.

On Peertube, discovering new things is practically impossible. Also, half the videos I tried didn't even play.

In open for suggestions though

    it's all right wing trash because they exclude left wing content via demonization -- you should expect anything besides it from corporate platforms since right wing content is pro-profit content.

    That just simply isn't true. My feed is like 50% left-wing content, the rest isn't political at all.

    what passes for left wing in the western world is centrist by global standards.
