    They’re entirely skippable if you “skip” Youtube altogether.

    Time to jump ship to federated alternatives!

      I think I took a look at that and found the content to be lacking. Am I confusing it with something else?

        Still lacking, yes, but less and less as people put more content on it.

          Take your pink… Okay but seriously? Fragmenting things all over the place does not help.

      Me. I don’t understand peertube. I seem to have access to a handful of vids in French (?) and that’s it. I see content fragmented across many servers that, if not added manually, I have no idea how to discover.
