🔴 Just tried using Peertube, however could not find anything on the platform I wanted to watch. My interests include videos based on science or history. Is there some secret I am missing?
@bibliolater There are a bunch of both Science and History creators out there. How were you looking?
My preferred way is to follow the creator in Mastodon, for example. Then when they publish a new video, I can watch it by clicking the post in Mastodon and both like and comment right from there. (No need to login to there peertube instance.
One I am following now (history) is Premodernist.
you can follow @premodernist_history for the videos.
Thank you for commenting. I used the search facility on Peertube and could not really find anything that was interesting. I will follow premodernist and see what comes.
@obryanb Another commentator mentioned 'Sepia Search' and have started using it. Thank you for your assistance.
@bibliolater If you are using the search box on the top of your peertube instance, I think that only searches that server (or maybe others that it is directly federated to).
Have you tries Sepia Search?
https://sepiasearch.org/
I usually just search by HashTag in Mastodon to find interested creators.
