When I tried it in the past, I kinda didn’t take it seriously because everything was confined to its instance, but now, there’s full-featured global search and proper federation everywhere? Wow, I thought I heard there were some technical obstacles making it very unlikely, but now it’s just there and works great! I asked ChatGPT and it says this feature was added 5 years ago! Really? I’m not sure how I didn’t notice this sooner. Was it really there for so long? With flairs showing original instance where video comes from and everything?

      Not the person you’re asking, but I mostly watch craft stuff, particularly 1:12 scale dollhouse miniatures and sewing. The most recent video I could find that was even remotely relevant is several months old and about a different kind of miniature.

        Best you can do is ask some of these content creators to also post their videos to PeerTube.

        PeerTube has built-in syncing of YouTube channels, so it’s fairly easy once it’s set up.

          Why would they do that without any monetary incentive at all?

          I mean, I guess what I’m saying is if you can post to YouTube and get paid, why would you intentionally choose to post to PeerTube and not get paid?
