Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I use it from time to time. The tech is getting better.
But it's very hard to find anything interesting on it.
They REALLY need to focus on implementing content filter and discovery tools.
Right now it's a lot noise and reposted videos. The search function doesn't work at all.

I think the platform could be viable with a decent, verbatim search function; a tag-based browsing system, and the ability to visualize the federated instances and browse any of them as local.

It's still possible to find interesting videos by browsing an instance focused on a specific interested as local.

Hi,

Can you paste examples of when the search doesn't work? And are you talking about the PeerTube instance builtin search or https://sepiasearch.org/?
