You're not doing it wrong. It's just a bit like that at the moment.
What Peertube needs is for other Fediverse platforms to build in a filter so only posts which contain video are displayed.
Peertube posts do federate but because there are way less videos produced than text and image posts (for obvious reasons) they are drowned out. Filtering by content type seems like the obvious solution. This is how Pixelfed works (but for still images), so it's clearly possible.
My feeling is that we're still in the first iteration of the Fediverse, where it's mostly trying to replace the functionality of corporate platforms. Which I think has mostly been achieved now. Hopefully it will start leaning into its unique strengths now and become really innovative.
Of course there is also the issue of adoption and Peertube has had less publicity than Mastodon and Lemmy, so it's understandable that there is less content. If you can, contact your favourite youtubers and ask them to start a Peertube channel. If enough of us do this it starts to become a thing :)
I was going to upvote but then:
Please stop the corporate garbage talk/pitching bullshit. Can't we have a normal discussion without these buzzwords?
Woah, shame on me for not getting my thesaurus out for you. I'll be more careful next time...
There's no need to be rude and swear at me. Be polite, offer a correction. If you're against corporations (like I am) then maybe leave their culture of antagonism at the door and help keep the Fediverse pleasant, helpful and cooperative.
yeah sorry i didn't mean to sound rude. It's just that I've heard too much "corporate bullshit talk" that i can't just stay calm when i hear it.
OK, apology accepted. And I do agree that commodified/appropriated speech is annoying to hear by the way.
How about a deal; you make more of an effort to be nice, and I make more of an effort to avoid corporate language?
Latest PeerTube vids available on PieFed - should be quite handy hopefully, because - as you say - they normally get buried by any sort method that isn't 'New'
