PieFed Meta@piefed.social•PeerTube.wtf did not federate my comment (was "Three sided PeerTube federation seems to have problems")
1·4 months agoHi!
Please, use our dedicated forum for technical issues, it’s hard to do support on social medias and our devs read the forum!

Thaaanks!

14·8 months agoOh, sorry to hear this. We’ll make sure to follow your observations to the team.
As we can now afford to pay designers, some parts of the interface are being improved, but it’s a slow progress. Here are some resources on our work in v7: https://joinpeertube.org/news/share-ressources
About finding your favorite YouTube creators on PeerTube, this is still hard, as they’re probably aren’t as much as you think they’d be, if you think the scraping tool would be very useful. Using browser extensions such as https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/peertube-companion/ or https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/peertubeify/ which redirect you to a PeerTube version of a YouTube video could give you a view of the content currently on both platforms.
Otherwise, accounts such as Fedivideo mentioned in this thread are doing a very good job to curate content you might like, and we want to help that (with our limited resources).

9·8 months agoThe main thing is our documentation https://docs.joinpeertube.org/. Basic install should be really fine.

25·8 months agoOur developers were writing Free Software on their free time before they got hired, because Framasoft knew them through their free-time productions, but obviously not everybody can do that, and we’ve very lucky to have an economic model which allows us to pay developers properly.

40·8 months agoBecause we’re a very small team, and we’re okay with it staying this way. Not all of us are speaking English correctly. Having a worldwide audience would mean communicating in English all the time, providing assistance in English.
Also, we want to grow at a pace that suits us. We would much prefer if there were other organizations doing exactly the same thing as us in other countries that we could refer people to.

8·8 months agoThat’s an idea (and some content creators kind of already do that if YouTube unpublishes their video for some reason), but it’s not very selling as an idea. Being independent from fake companies claiming the rights to some content is a selling point, though.

13·8 months agoSadly no, right now we don’t really have the time to approach these types of organizations and try to make partnerships. However, there is the possibility for a hosting provider offering PeerTube as a solution to contact them and make them a complete offer.

23·8 months agoWe have a support button that can be shown on videos to provide instructions on how to support a channel (for instance with Liberapay). I don’t know what you had in mind that would the integration would be like, but please share it on https://ideas.joinpeertube.org/. Most probably it could be solved through a simple plugin.

10·8 months agoWe’re fine on giving people the choice to use the algorithm they want. Today our « Hot » sorting type is using a derivative of Reddit’s old algorithm, but we could add new ones. However, it takes time to focus on this topic, so it’s not a priority.

4·8 months agoI don’t believe it would make a big difference. Platforms have made it very convenient for content creators to view all kind of insights on their audience, hence they might want to support the need for accounts.




















Thanks for sharing our campaign!
To be completely transparent, we’re not developers of all the solutions listed here. It’s mostly just PeerTube, and partly Framadate and Framapad. We handed Mobilizon over to a different organisation nearly two years ago: https://mobilizon.org/about/
Apart from that, what we do is providing a wide range of services using free/libre software: https://degooglisons-internet.org/en/
