Personally I have a very small yt channel that I haven't uploaded to for months. I'm making stuff again, and my plan is to start uploading things to peertube early and then to yt, and I will tell people in my videos that they can find my videos early there.
I doubt I'll make a huge difference from me personally, but I'm sure if more creators did this it would start to. There needs to be a bridge between the platforms.
The thing is, they'd have to do it for the sake of creating an alternative space, and not for like patreon benefits or something. I guess the peertube videos could be unlisted and there be links from patreon, and then they go public after the yt one does? I don't even know if peertube has this functionality.
But again, this would have to be done because the creator believes in federation as a long term solution. It certainly would benefit creators personally to have a backup they're more in charge of. The difficulty is they don't seem to know it's a viable option.
