@FediVideos But then how? Both PT servers and Mastodon use ActivityPub, but only one can communicate with TILvids?

@FediVideos So, it's just a video hosting site that can also crosspost to Mastodon !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No, it's not crossposting to Mastodon, it's federating. If you reply to a tilvids post in Mastodon, that reply appears as a comment in Tilvids, because it's the same post. Tilvids is trying to create a good well-moderated server where established video makers can publish on the Fediverse without being posted alongside conspiracy theory videos etc. The admin has been patiently negotiating to get more good video makers onto the Fedi, and I think they deserve support for that. |

It's to do with who owns the rights to the videos.
Most of Tilvids' content is made by other people, and they only gave permission for the videos to be reposted on Tilvids.
You would have to talk to the videos' creators if you want these terms changed.
It's not something the server admin can change.
