Mastodon is twitter, peer tube is youtube, foxelfed is Instagram.... What is misskey?
Twitter. With a little google drive thrown into the mix. Plus simple custom algorithmic feeds. And some kooky animation stuff.
And also classic Facebook Social Games , Discord reaction, Facebook Groups, Facebook Photo Gallery, and some Japanese social media clone (that I forgot its name)
Word.
How the fuck is peertube above Lemmy??? What the actual fuck??? Everytime I go there, it's the same 3 people who've made like 5 daily videos about linux....and nothing else ever.
I get that I'm not exactly the target linux audience, but if KDE pulls an update from version 6.1 to 6.2, THAT IS NOT BREAKING NEWS!!! You do not need 10 videos discussing the 4 new features every time any linux software updates.
But THAT has more users than THIS??? It's a broken down joke with a lot of potential that will never be realized until their search becomes intutive and all inclusive! I should have video results natively within the same page that pulls from ALL of peertube. Not just the current instance.
"Trending" should default to trending on all of peertube. You can include a filter to show trending on local instance only, but it shouldn't be the default.
In some countries with vpn blocking it's the only way to get videos. there's also a lot of instances that don't federate. The default English relays are quite bad for English speakers but in French for example there's a huge amount of content.
I literally had never even heard of Misskey and Peertube lol. I have a hard time thinking too mostly unknowns are bigger than Lemmy.
MissKey is like facebook. It's mostly Japanese users.
Peertube is like is Youtube had the same instance/decentralized format as Lemmy.
Except Lemmy actually has a functional search that you don't need to go to an external website to use. It's really broken.
I think that there's a lot more on PeerTube than it seems because discoverability is so terrible. I can't confirm that, though, because I can't find any of it.
Maybe something like FediSearch will make it more useful?
thanks. the link for this gives me what looks like a terminal. I sorta wish there was more of a centralized login thing.
