Comment on Is PeerTube dead or is discoverability bad?
captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 11 months agoDo we need to start over? Like fork PeerTube and fix all the “We choose to do this wrong because our parents didn’t hug us as children” problems?

No, I don’t think it’s anywhere near that bad.
I just think that going forward, Peertube developers and instance owners should make the platform more accessible and interconnected.
It’s a bigger responsibility to actually host content instead of just links to content, which I don’t think most peertube instance owners can handle.

But federating with other instances IS links to content, not hosting content.
commander@lemmings.world 11 months ago
I’m actually referring to both. Instance owners are afraid to allow users to host content and they’re afraid to link to servers that host content.

So why run an instance in the first place then?
