I enjoy PeerTube for what it is. But we have to talk about how PeerTube is I would say the one open source app that is getting the least amount of new users

So wanted to bring up some points on how we can improve it in some ways:

  • It is too complex with not enough up to date guides and videos on how to set it up for most people
  • Need new open source frontend client mobile apps to make it simpler to sign up, sign in, & watch videos/channels on it
  • The website for sign up is not very user-friendly and like a semi-maze for people who are new

Anything else you would like to add or say about PeerTube in general?

It’s a phenomenal project and backend will of course stay the same but it needs a better pipeline of people and creators to it

    costs producing and publishing it.

    That is pretty much zero no days though. The only real cost is time.

    I mean yes, they will need a computer. They might need lighting if they are on camera, but from then on, zilch. You could do it with a cell phone for video.

    I have a kid that published their music with videos, and there is no cost at all, using all the free tools available.
