    If PeerTube can fix their major discoverability issues, it can potentially pose a real threat to YouTube. But that’s the biggest thing keeping it back right now, is that it’s impossible to just find anything you want to watch.

    Unless you want to watch hour-long seminars on Linux. In which case, PeerTube’s got you covered.

      I think discoverability is in its infancy for the fediverse in general.

      But I’m old enough to remember when vast tracts of the internet were hard to find and everyone used directories. When that changed, everyone jumped online.
