Or 'What is PeerTube lacking that you simply cannot do without?'

I believe it's a safe assumption that fediverse users want to move away from the monopolies and closed gardens so often associated with video streaming, and yet it's not a task that's ever been made easy. Maybe an ounce of inspiration is the cue we need, and so my question to you is; What's Stopping you from using PeerTube?

Peertube lacks in discoveribility.

The PeerTube app is better than the website, but lacks in many.

Provided filters are basic, either I see hot videos, which don't update for a long while, so I'm stuck with the same selection.

Or new filter gives me the newest videos, which are from spammy channels, that upload multiple videos in a short span, which isn't helpful, there is no filter that mixes between the two, there's no algorithm that surfaces interesting videos.

interests tag might be good but something a bit dynamic and detail is what I wish.

the website is very confusing. How do I see videos from all instances like in the app. And why interests reset everytime when pressing a button to sort?
