Joinpeertube.org doesnโ€™t have the best onboarding, but take a look at the pinned post at !peertube@lemmy.wtf for a few good servers to choose from.

If it has to be explained in a post on another site then itโ€™s guaranteed to lose.

It has already come a long way and will continue to get better and easier; put in the tiny bit of effort required to help it grow.

Defeatism because everything isn't spoonfed to you and 100% on par with YouTube is actively harmful to the transition away from American products.

Until itโ€™s as easy as Reddit or YouTube then we are not going to meet critical mass. This isnโ€™t being defeatist, this is being realistic.

Yeah these are real problems that need to be addressed, not issues to say "nuh uh" and bury our head in the sand to
