Ah okay, so you can also upload videos to your username channel?

Storage is for videos you upload. If you don’t intend to upload video, you should just go for a PeerTube platform (instance/server) that federates with as many other as possible.

Do you have an example?

If I go to The Linux Experiment via peertube.wtf, I can see many years of videos.

That’s my instance! :D

Isn’t it the exact same thing on YouTube?

You have a user account, which can have x numbers of channels.

Then find another instance…

You should go here https://ideas.joinpeertube.org/ or here https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube to raise concerns.

Tilvids.com don’t want to allow following or follow anyone themselves. That’s a policy they have had for a long time. However… Since Tilvids is on this list: https://instances.joinpeertube.org/instances?search=tilvids, they are part of the Global Search Index. So you can get videos from tilvids in your search results, if you instance has enabled Global Search.

Also, you, as an instance owner, can follow channels on tilvids, by using their channel handles.

Sort by “hot”. And also, check this list out for content: https://lemmy.wtf/post/15810205

Also also, you can still follow channels on tilvids.com, from your own instance, by following the channel’s handle.

Instance owners can enable Sepia Search (Global Search Index) on their instances.

Sepia Search is something that’s also build into PeerTube, if the admin have enabled Global Search. Sepia Search uses this list of instances: https://instances.joinpeertube.org/instances

The same can be enabled in PeerTube. You can see here, that I have it enabled on my instance:

The PeerTube admin chooses which other platforms they follow. They can also control who can follow them.

Which instance was that? Have a look at this list: https://lemmy.wtf/post/15816115

Even if the instance does not federate with the instance you wanted, you can still type in the link of the channel in the other instance’s search bar.

I would not recommend using tilvids.com. They do not federate with anyone and do not have global search enabled, which means search only shows videos from tilvids.com. It is however, possible to follow channels from tilvids.com from other platforms (instances).

Simply copy the link from tilvids.com and paste it into the search bar of an instance that has global search enabled.

Platforms can also follow channels directly from tilvids and the videos will show up on said platform.

Discoverability can be a bit finicky on PeerTube. Especially if you don’t know how to fine tune the filters.

If you take a look at this list: https://peertube.wtf/home and this one https://lemmy.wtf/post/15810205, you’ll see that there’s plenty of content creators to follow. I discover new ones almost every day.

There really isn’t any other big content creators on PeerTube, other than The Linux Experiment, but if you wanna see your favorite creator on PeerTube, ask them.

If you are looking for a platform (instance) to register on, I recommend looking at this list: https://lemmy.wtf/post/15816115

Why don’t you just keep away from c/all and stick to your subscribed communities?

To discover new communities, I suggest subscribing to c/newcommunities

Tilvids.com is probably the best place for good creators on PeerTube.
