When I tried it in the past, I kinda didn't take it seriously because everything was confined to its instance, but now, there's full-featured global search and proper federation everywhere? Wow, I thought I heard there were some technical obstacles making it very unlikely, but now it's just there and works great! I asked ChatGPT and it says this feature was added 5 years ago! Really? I'm not sure how I didn't notice this sooner. Was it really there for so long? With flairs showing original instance where video comes from and everything?

I asked ChatGPT and it thinks OP made a humorous comment

If ChatGPT said it was added five years ago, that means it was added anywhere between 13.8 billions years ago and never.

That made me exhale. But using the age of the universe as lower bound is already giving chatgpt too much credit

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 5 points 23 hours ago

Yeah I finally made an account and there is more than enough here to satisfy my mealtime watching needs. Still not a lot of content when compared to the mainstream platforms, but that reminds me of all the fediverse offerings a few years ago.

I feel like it's only a matter of time before there's enough on peertubes to keep me off the mainstreams almost entirely.

I asked ChatGPT

Why do people bring this up every fucking time?

[–] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 2 points 16 hours ago

I asked Gemini, and my browser crashed, so, idk, man I guess it's knowledge too powerful for human minds to contain.

"I used chatgpt"

Because they know it's not accurate and explicitly mention it so you know where this information comes from.

ChatGPT is correct? The irony of people confidently asserting that ChatGPT is wrong, while being wrong, seems to be lost on the crowd here. Kinda makes you understand why ChatGPT is often so confident even when wrong.

Why the fuck do people ask ChatGPT for shit like this? ChatGPT doesn't know facts. It's a magic 8-ball with more words.

I have to say I think Peertube itself is good, but the content still isn't there yet. Of course we all know that's because there isn't cash to be made on Peertube

Wanted to say: No, according to Wikipedia global search launched in 2020.

But that actually was 5 years ago, damn.

Getting older... There's a creaking in my bones... 2020 was 5 years ago...

I must be doing something wrong or using a shit instance cause I can't find one at all but everytime I go to peertube (and I"m not searching just locally) I see like 3 videos get posted a day, most of which are videos about Lies of P or car videos. LIke there's no content.

so...what am I doing wrong?

[–] hisao@ani.social 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Either poorly-federated instance, or you look in the wrong place? Here's a good one: https://peertube.wtf/videos/browse?live=false

I tried it about a year ago and instantly dismissed it, not one video that I found slightly interesting.

Even after reading this Im not going to try it again because it was just that bad.
