Peertube has this fediverse problem. You google it, go to the webpage and instead of getting a list of promoted videos, you get an explanation of what it is and a manual on how to actually join, starting with „select a pot“. You then get to search the list of pots that all have like 10 viewers and 5gb upload limit. I stopped at this point.

That being said, i really would like an European youtube alternative, but not off the „provide your own hardware“ kind.

They always seem a bit last generation to me, especially if you compare it with the claude models. That being said, I hope they catch up and am going to use them for most of the basic stuff I do with AI.

I hope Europe invest heavily into them to keep them competitive
