If you haven't browsed PeerTube lately, you might want to try it again, as the content now is much more diverse and interesting than it has ever been.

I've made a site where you can easily and safely browse the good stuff on PeerTube at https://fedi.video

I also run an account which boosts nice PeerTube videos several times a day at @FediVideo and there's a long thread pinned there full of good PeerTube accounts to follow (https://social.growyourown.services/@FediVideo/111749782236394092).

PeerTube used to be just lots of Linux videos, but it's way more than that now. Would definitely recommend having another look.

Thanks, looks excellent! 🤩

I'm trying to follow by specific channels/accounts rather than entire instances, to make the curation more effective 🙂

I'm getting a 400 error when I look at the account page for the channels there? I know the channels work, but people will just see the account if they are following from Mastodon. Is the 400 error a known bug?

@FediThing All the videos are posted from a single account. Not sure why it 404s but its

@video

Searching that on your instance should pull it up.

It pulls it up, but when I try to view it on the instance it gives me this (see screenshot).

It also briefly says "Incorrect request parameters count" in the bottom right corner.

@FediThing I saw that. No idea why. I'll try to poke at it later.

Thanks for posting. I am sure I will be watching "Wings (1927)" as soon as possible. Thanks. Much appreciated.
This is a very nice list of playlists.

Aww, brilliant! It's a version with an alternative soundtrack that is only on PeerTube, hope you like it 😃

@FediThing @FediVideo I'm really glad to hear that #peertube as a platform has become diverse and its contents are not predominantly catering to the #linux community only.

@FediThing @FediVideo Are there any mobile apps yet? (Sorry - am a peertube noob!)

It depends on what you want to do. You can follow and interact with PeerTube accounts entirely from Mastodon, so you could use any Mastodon app for that.

If you want to upload videos or create playlists on PeerTube, you would need a PeerTube app, which would include Fedilab (the Mastodon app also has a dedicated PeerTube mode) or Newpipe. You can also use the PeerTube web app.

There's a beginner's guide to about everything to do with PeerTube here:

@FediVideo Thanks very much! I've become addicted to using YouTube to fall asleep to, so either from the app on my TV or iPhone. Since the adverts became insane am desperately seeking alternatives. I have subscriptions to Curiosity Stream and Nebula, but they don't quite fill the gap. So, for me it's just to watch, and apps make that much easier - but I'm being mega lazy! And yes, maybe I can just use ToooT for it...

Ahh, that's a good point, you can't watch playlists from Mastodon.

If you're wanting to watch several videos in a row automatically, you would have to be watching the videos on PeerTube itself to do that.

Can you add this one to the documentary playlist? It's the first ever documentary series to be released exclusively to peertube, I'm surprised it isn't on the list.
