I want to make some videos, but I do not want to add them to TY, I am looking for an alternative, unfortunately I know Vimeo, but this is not what I am looking for.

I believe you are looking for PeerTube. Or Loops if you make more short form videos.

    That #Loops looks more decent. The PeerTube took me to a landing page, it was very difficult to find videos there. Thanks! :)

    he PeerTube took me to a landing page,

    joinpeertube.org itself does not host videos.
    Look here: https://joinpeertube.org/instances

    People need to stop recommending server directories to the newbies. People genuinely don't grok how ActivityPub works out of the gate, and they trip all over that shit. There's only a handful of open registration PeerTube sites, anyway. We should just point them to, like, clip.place.

    I like loops, but it looks to be heavily ai assisted lately. Doesn't bother me, because it actually made decent progress and looks way less dated now. I just find it funny how as long as a dev obscures or doesn't mention it, no one seems to notice. Catadon looks pretty interesting too, hella bloated and the ui has some odd choices but it has some potential. It's at least getting some ideos out there and showing they can work.

    Check out https://clip.place. It's a PeerTube-based site with open registration.

    I gave up on peertube (especially the app) when I couldn't find a server with open registration. And it is one of the messier services to host that I've tried. I dont even want to post videos. I just wanted to find cool videos and follow them.

    Instead of recommending "peertube" itself we should point to servers that have open registration or even better, peerseek.video since the platform is useless without decent discovery tools.

    If you just want to follow channels and perhaps comment on videos, your piefed account should work for that. Discoverability (of Pt videos, searched from Piefed) would be lackluster to say the least, but the "basics" should work.

    I'm generally an advocate for doing this for the entire Fediverse. "Mastodon", "PixelFed", "Lemmy", "PieFed", etc., are not places people can go to experience the Fediverse. They're pieces of server software that let you stand up websites, just like WordPress is. You'd never tell people to check out "WordPress" when you want them to see some restaurant's menu or to look up your business or whatever. We shouldn't be doing the equivalent with the Fediverse.
