I enjoy PeerTube for what it is. But we have to talk about how PeerTube is I would say the one open source app that is getting the least amount of new users
So wanted to bring up some points on how we can improve it in some ways:
- It is too complex with not enough up to date guides and videos on how to set it up for most people
- Need new open source frontend client mobile apps to make it simpler to sign up, sign in, & watch videos/channels on it
- The website for sign up is not very user-friendly and like a semi-maze for people who are new
Anything else you would like to add or say about PeerTube in general?
It’s a phenomenal project and backend will of course stay the same but it needs a better pipeline of people and creators to it
Also check out post by another person below mine about Keep Android Open
peertube.wtf pulls almost all known instances (or all the good ones at least).
You can always go over to [email protected] if you would like to watch videos but not necessarily get a peertube account. Or subscribe to peertube channels directly (works better on piefed than lemmy but both should theoretically work.
It federates with all listed here: https://instances.joinpeertube.org/instances, which is most instances.
nice!
