That’s not true. Check out the pinned post at !peertube@lemmy.wtf for a list of content creators. Also check out the home page of PeerTube.wtf that also has a list of content creators.
SepiaSeach will search a large number of instances for content. Not a bad start for peertube. But I do agree that it’s hard to find good content there.
It’s not about monetisation. It’s about audience. Who is going to bother to host an instance and post to a platform where the most popular videos only get 100 views?
Monetizing leads to being able to pay bills. Don’t you think authors deserve being paid for the content if they wish so? Besides Google managing of youtube is cause of shittiness. Personally I would be fine with a subscription as long as artists get most of it.
Yeah, that does not and will not work, at least not on scale. Think about an average user - do you think he/she will donate to each video he/she watches, perhaps on TV?
But if the model is a subscription one (think Netflix, Tidal, Spotify, heck, perhaps even YouTube and so on, with amount being fairly distributed to authors), then it just might work.
Can not agree more. When I open YouTube and see the amount of clickbait previews, badly cut and created content and just copies left n right I loose all interest
Unfortunately, the PeerTube community is inactive and small. There are basically no interesting videos at all.

!peertube@lemmy.wtf is quite active and tries to highlight interesting content.
Sorry but 2 posts in the last week can hardly be considered quite active.
Thanks, I will try it out.

Yep, as it doesn’t have a monetization incentive it will be never that appealing. There should be a way for authors to earn money.
