PeerTube is a free, decentralised and federated video platform, and a part of the fediverse, meaning you can interact with it via Mastodon and other tools, thanks to the ActivityPub protocol.

There is only one paid developer, working for the French non-profit Framasoft – and I think it's important to share this in non French-speaking spaces.

I truly like PeerTube as a technology, however I still haven't managed to build even a minimal stock of PeerTube based content creators I'd enjoy to follow.

On Youtube it's easy, there's much more high quality content about any topic imaginable than I ever could watch in my limited time on this planet, but on PeerTube instances I haven't found anything that made me come back to that particular creator.

So my question is, can you recommend a good cooking PeerTuber, or a good one discussing the newest single board computers? It's really difficult finding something worth watching.

Question about Peertube: Is it possible to personally view and verify each uploaded video, as the host/admin of the service? (time constraints aside)

My concern is, that if I host a peertube instance and anyone uploads illegal stuff, I am going to hang for it. So perhaps I would like a Peetube instance just for my friends an me, where I can personally review each video, to not get into trouble. Basically doing the job which the big platforms are too high and noble to properly do and use their algorithms for.

I thought that platforms were protected as long as they take down illegal content when they are informed about it?

I tried PeerTube but deleted it after it ignored my custom media profiles for AV1 and silently encoded the videos as AVC. No official way of using FOSS formats because the head of PeerTube does not want give people the choice of cutting off Apple users and the official plugin for creating custom encoding profiles just encoded as default AVC when MY AV1 profile was selected.
