Gregory's Server@atomicpoet I also like the aims of PeerTube, but being based on ActivityPub it seems to have some of the same limitations as Mastodon. Lack of global search, discovery, trends, etc. It would be nice to be able to easily search for and discover all content everywhere from any server… That’s part of what makes YouTube (and Twitter) so good.

@raphaelmorgan @atomicpoet If someone on your local server doesn’t follow or boost a remote post/video, it never appears and cannot be found in search… That’s a problem, I think. Not arguing that a centralized solution is better than a distributed one! But the ActivityPub follow/boost model which doesn’t proactively announce a servers content to the entire network frustrates me sometimes.  @anji |
@anji @atomicpoet I'm 99% sure it would be possible to make something like this with the existing videos on PeerTube based on ActivityPub. I'm 0% sure you can currently easily search for and discover all content currently on YouTube, let alone all the content that's been deleted because YouTube didn't like it.
