Peertube while a neat idea might be the single biggest fucking joke I've ever seen in my life. It's so beyond a pipe dream that it wraps around into absurdity.
To be perfectly frank a lot for the open source/federated stuff is basically a comically unuseable joke.
A handful manage to get barely half way useable like lemmy because it basically just a repost dumping ground from the big social medias. Or a more modern version of a old internet format.
But it's still at best half useable. That still makes it more useable then what a lot of the corpo alternatives are. But when your only saving grace is that the other options are worse by virtue of being shit.
It doesn't make you actually good. It just makes you less worse.
