I would add that several browser addons that send you to a peertube version of a youtube video exist as well. Can make life somewhat awkward though as quite often the peertube version is actually of a lower quallity. If you are a creator if you use an instance that allows youtube import you can also automagically import videos from YT to your PT channel as well

PeerTube has its own frontend (User Interface). Do you mean a “provider” like PeerTube.wtf?
I have created a Mastodon list just for PeerTube “subscriptions”. I just swap over and then have a list only full of videos. On mobile the Surf app could do something similar.
There's the mobile app for Android, and on my Desktop I just use the website.
I use grayjay (android and I think desktop now too?), which works for most streaming services, such as PeerTube, YouTube, Nebula, etc. One app for all the things.
I got it installed and it's pretty neat, but YouTube doesn't work on it, just PeerTube.
Really? It works well for me on my phone with everything I've tried on it (YT, PeerTube, Rumble, Nebula, Twitch, and Odyssee).
It seems to have worked now, probably because I opened it for the first time. It's really nice, great way to degoogle this necessity.
Is it normal that it's a little slow?
PeerTube isn't a single website like YouTube - it's a decentralized platform with many different "instances" (seperate websites) that all talk to each other, so you just pick one instance like peertube.wtf or peer.tube to start watching and creating content.
Im only aware of the main one, is there alternatives? Do you mean like themes?
So, it seems like I’m not aware of what the main one is. Whats the link for it?
Do you just want something like https://peer.tube/
Yoy can find the whole list of public instances here:
The website works fine. I don't understand the app obcession people have. Though newpipe is an option if you must
