This is because Sepia Search has a much larger index of videos than https://periscope.numenaute.org/

Here’s a search for “Rayman 2” at PeerTube.wtf, which uses the same index as Sepia Search: https://peertube.wtf/search?sort=-match&searchTarget=search-index&resultType=videos&search=rayman+2

Do you have an example? Because it should be capable of that.

Sepia Search shows videos from pretty much all instances. 1265 to be exact.

In my experience a stable distribution is a “set and forget”, unless you start tinkering with it.

I have countless of users where I’ve installed something like Linux Mint and it’s been literally running for years without any issues. These users have no idea how to use a computer, except for logging in and opening the browser.

Obviously the more complex a setup, the more shit can go wrong.

Most people who go out and buy a computer doesn’t understand what an OS is. If Linux was standard when you bought a PC, it would be the dominating OS. I mean, you could switch the OS to Linux on the computers and I think most people wouldn’t realise when they buy it lol

He doesn’t know when to stop, but luckily he can only count to 80!

People don’t like pewdiepie I guess

Yes. You can mirror videos from other instances. This also work as a kind of redundancy, if the PeerTube instance with the original video is down.

PeerTube is a video sharing platform, just like YouTube or Vimeo. Videos you watch on PeerTube is hosted on a PeerTube instance.

You are right, but the users also need to be watching the video at the same resolution. A PeerTube instance can also function as a peer.

If multiple people are watching the same video, at the same resolution, it uses WebRTC (HLS P2P) to share data between them, saving bandwidth from the PeerTube instance.

A PeerTube instance can also function as a peer (seed) for another PeerTube instance.

Wouldn’t you need to use PeerTube to discover and search for content? So you have would to go back and forth between PeerTube and Mastodon.

So obviously, if you just want to consume videos, it’s the best experience to use PeerTube.

What do you mean? It’s a video made by The Linux Experiment, where he talks about the news.

But if you just want to use PeerTube, using Mastodon just introduces extra steps.

Sure, if you have or want to use Mastodon.

It’s actually a different thumbnail from the YouTube version and I wouldn’t call this stupid. You only see the eyes and no facial reaction.

You could simply put the storage quota at 0 and the user wont be able to upload anything. Then the admin can give a quota to the user later.

You can still have open registrations, but not allow uploads. Most people don’t have stuff to upload, but just need an instance with the most reach and a place to keep track of content.

Lenovo has become utter crap. At work, I’m replacing our Lenovo’s with the Framework 13

Doesn’t work with all yet though. At least not on iOS 😭
