As with all the different federated platforms, each will require its own account, which IMHO is actually a good thing.

Yes, you can link videos within a Lemmy/Kbin thread that points to the video, just like you would with any other video link.

However, when it comes to interactivity/comments in order for this to happen a user needs to follow the channel, for example try following this @Blender

From the point you start following, it will pop up in your timeline like any other user and your comments to it will show up on their instance, just like a YouTube comment.

I have been able to post in a Lemmy community from an Mbin instance without having a Lemmy account, so the separate account limitation is not a universal limitation. Hence why I asked. In any case, I appreciate the answer.

I’ll also say that there is a privacy issue with this design. If I am in a video, my appearance, voice, & part of the world I am in are all revealed & subject to facial rec. I don’t generally want my biometrics to then be linked to my threadiverse accts.

So this limitation creates an burden of having to register and maintain more accounts. Registration is increasingly slow and tedious to fight bots, so we often have to write something about ourselves and possibly solve a captcha to create a new Lemmy account.

When it comes to the video, you could make it using your actual identity as you do on Youtube, no difference. Since it's only a peertube account there is no link to any of your other fediverse accounts ... which is why I prefer separate identities as well.

I would never touch Youtube. YT also blocks me anyway. Nor would I disclose my identity to peertube beyond what’s unavoidable as far as biometrics goes.

It would be useful if peertube would add the capability to post to Lemmy (as Kbin does). Until then, we have the burden of creating an extra kbin or lemmy acct just to add a link.

More Friendica questions

HI #askfedi

Is there a way to add an invidious redirect to #youtube links in #friendica as you can with some #mastodon clients?

I just got back here after months trekking thru other parts of the #fediverse and currently getting tired of #mastodon and the bloat....I've always loved #friendica, but it seemed slow...maybe things have changed, thoughts?

Is development still ongoing?

Also, loving the #relatica app on android:)

... likely to happen more as time goes on ...


Sad, but true.

... a project that fully embraces IPFS or something similar ...


I wasn't aware of IPFS; I'll have to look into it.

Sam Tripoli on Peertube
For any #tinfoilhat fans out there (Sam Tripoli) you'll be happy to know his episodes are mirrored on his very own #peertube instance tinfoilhat@vid.samtripoli.com and thanks to the magic that is #activitypub you can follow the latest releases directly from #mastodon :) The view counts on the videos are truly incredible since they're embedded on his main website. The part that I enjoy the most is the fact that most of his audience has no idea of technology being used
