Yeah, that sounds very reasonable. Peertubes discovery is just not good imo.
It's not just the discovery, there's just not enough quality content.
How would you know if you physically cant discover it?
I mean, yeah, that's true. But I haven't heard of many big YouTube/Odysee creators uploading their videos on PeerTube or even entirely switching to PeerTube.
Which is an entirely different issue, right?
Discoverability is key for any youtuber trying to switch. Essentially, right now would be a goog time to build a channel with a couple dozen videos and if (or when) the discoverability changes, you're going viral overnight. It's also a very minor issue. On youtube, people "think" a topic and get it presented due to very native search and the algorithm which mimics and influences their thoughts. Peertube and other fediverse apps dont like algorithms for obvious reasons so a native search it is. I'm trying to raise that issue with the makers rn. Let's see what happens. :)
