I'm a new peertuber (literally created the channel yesterday) and being on the fediverse for a good time made me think It's a bit more harder to be discovered. It's not just that I want to become internet famous, but also because a whole lot of content here is generally really bad. (I'm not talking about the shitposts, the info coming from videos are boring as hell, the thumbnails and titles meh.)

I love the fediverse, It's tough to say but the videos here is quote-on-quote, really boring.

I'm not about to recreate the same mistakes, peertube could be something more than this.

unrelated: One thing I noticed is that youtubers do alot of collabs, and that's probably why some youtubers get discovered quickly, in general generates alot of traction. However there isn't really a center place to find other creators on peertube.

If there is any advice please don't hesitate to tell me anything, and let's discuss this for a bit, shall we?

Thanks in advance..

well about tilvids... I just also don't like the fact that they deny instance following; inherently making other' instances potential quality to be much lower since the majority of good creators are there. I'm not about to contribute if my videos doesn't spread like a virus throughout the internet, too.

For now I could talk to scanlime (owner of diode.zone) and do some improvements, like educating people for tagging, or theming the instance.

... Boiling Steam or Zed at the ShovelWarehouse ...

thanks

I think TILvids not allowing follows is very weird

yeah I think we should talk to them. care to join me on this one later? (if for some reason that I alone can't convince them)

No sorry, good luck. I have asked them in the past I believe and they had their reasoning. I think they want to control where people see their videos

but, why, when It's generally bad for the rest of peertube's content?
