I feel like it would be best to proxy YouTube, or subscribe to paid indie channels like nebula, but without a user base and without ad revenue or subscription revenue I don’t know how quality content can come to PeerTube. Maybe I’m just missing the content but when I’ve checked it’s all very low quality, just random unedited webcam vblogs mostly.

While I agree, I also think in the case of peertube part of it might also be that there aren't enough people watching for viewership to clearly highlight quality videos

It's definitely part of it but also there is no way to natively feature specific channels, and the algorithms they have are completely borked. If I go to "trending" and the first video is 3 years old, that's a problem. Also an extraordinary percentage of the content is in other languages, with no way to filter them. You can select a specific language and it just does nothing. These are just a few things that seem fairly easy to implement and would go a long way to improving the experience.
