The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Now…if only peer tube worked well.
I just said fuck it and run my own private invidious instance, it's been much more stable and reliable than any of the public instances
You might be mixing up PeerTube with Piped here (and so might the person you're replying to; I don't know of PeerTube being unreliable very often).
PeerTube is an entirely separate video hosting platform and part of the Fediverse. It's not just a YouTube frontend.
What's the cost? I'm talking both hosting and time spent maintaining it and any other hidden costs you may have encountered.
My home instance runs on truenas sff box next to a dozen other services, footprint is barely noticable but quality is limited by my upload bandwidth. Plays nice with cloudflare tunnels and reverse proxy for access anywhere. The truecharts plugin was touchy so I deployed my own from the docker:latest and it hasn't needed maintenance other than updates in six months.
There is also the privacy redirect extension, which also supports redirecting to invidious, nitter, bibliogram, openstreetview, etc, all toggleable. It lets you pick instance, or randomly pick for you.
Nitter is dead.
I see. I don't use X so I never noticed. I believe you can pick other services instead of nitter, or disable X redirects altogether.
Bibliogram dead too
Oooh that would be perfect for using OpenStreetMaps for my use case!
now we need a lemmy bot that replies with youtube links when it detects peertube, to prank that piped-bot
now that I think about it, this is a rad idea, I'd make it if I knew how to code:
here's the source-code for the piped-link-bot (taken from its profile)
I'd be willing to bet the bot only replies to a certain depth of comments on non bot accounts.
