I've been reading about both, yet I saw a lot of criticism and mixed opinions.

What do you think about them? What changes would you like to see? Do you know other promising alternatives?

Lbry is a home for many antisemitic ideas. I like the concept but I find many of the videos offensive.

Peertube offers more promising results but it is much smaller so there is less content.

Yeah! I noticed this too, I had it installed to follow specific creators and try out the platform and then BOOM! Nazis! I was so surprised and then realised that there were basically 2 groups there, those for the tech and those for the lack of moderation. I would love to see something more like Lemmy in terms of communities, moderation, and so on, all federated, but video is so damn heavy to serve and I just can't imagine standard video codecs being up to the job of making it affordable.
