Let's spread awareness of #peertube as a powerful and free alternative to corporate platforms. #foss #opensource #surveillance joinpeertube.framalab.org/
Did you know if you, as a creator, would like to continue publishing to #YouTube, it is actually very easy to synchronize/mirror your videos to a peertube account (if the instance allows this) automatically.
So basically, after an initial one-time setup, you will now have a presence outside GAFAM and corporate control.... baby steps;)
In addition, since it's compatible with #activitypub it's possible to follow your videos much like a 2 way RSS from the #Fediverse #mastodon platform of your choice. AND viewers can comment directly from here!!
It would be awesome to create a hashtag like #discoverpeertube to highlight interesting videos available there.
I'll start:

*please boost and follow the hashtag if you'd like to highlight this amazing alternative or better yet post any cool videos you find there as well:)

in reply to Luddite (under protest) • •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.

in reply to LPS • • •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.

in reply to LPS • • •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.
