somethingDotExeAm I just stupid or why can't I create an account via peertube app?
VoiHyvaLuojaMitaNytFrom what I learned, you need to find a instance that lets you make a non-creator account, if you just want to view videos, not create them.
I also learned that apparently you shouldn’t make a account but use Mastodon to subscribe and keep track of the channels you like. Third thing I learned is, its all so fucking confusing, I don’t know what to do and if I ask for guidance in the wrong place I get told I’m a moron and probably a asshole as well (which is true but that’s besides the point).
I ended up doing the Mastodon thing. Seems to be working.
I’m still trying to get my head around some Fediverse stuff… Why a Mastodon account vs. using my Lemmy account? Aren’t they both supposed to be interoperable with PeerTube?
UndeariusEach service has different features. But they way they implement the features can be different and may not be interoperable with each other.
That said, you can subscribe to Peertube channels on Lemmy. New videos will show up like any other post on your feed.

Goddamnit, had I known this I would have not made the mastodon account :D Oh well, I guess Lemmy will be my reddit replacement and Mastodon will be my youtube replacement.
… eventually. Maybe. Hopefully. Possibly. Perhaps.
Thank you!
