And the only other way that a bigger platform would grow is by ads being displayed on the Instance that brings you back to square one.

That's what I'm saying, someone already has to follow, you are then relying on the other people on your instance. It's one of the downsides of the Fediverse in general but it's made even worse with Video as video takes up a lot of space making each instance has limitations on the users stopping them from releasing so many videos.

Like Imagine if someone like Casey Neistat was still releasing daily videos but they where limited due to the possible instance they where using it would suck as it would stop them from uploading there latest video. Hopefully this gets solved in the future with better storage solutions but still it costs a lot to host Video files and that's why most people go to YouTube over anywhere else ATM.

I would love to see PeerTube as well as other Fediverse Video platforms to grow, it's just quite hard for it to grow unless each instance has easily over 100GB per user that uploads.

Even know I wish to see PeerTube grow especially with people at minimum cross-posting, without a way for instances to find content easily without having to know about the creator before hand discoverability will be shockingly bad. Along with this decentralised platforms need to get easier for people to create themselves, as most people who know a bit about computers still don't know the first step of creating a PeerTube or other Fediverse Instance (I'd love to run my own Instances in the future).

PeerTube is a really great idea but without some way of people finding the content and or having more space to upload that content (As most PeerTube Instances have like a 5GB limit) then it sadly won't get there.

Yeah it doesn't become the key part of the platforn but it's a cool stat to see.

It's as I use Mbin, What does both Microblogging and Threads (Lemmy)

Sorry it auto does the @ on my instance (I use Mbin btw). But yeah I know that some people are hateful, I guess it's because people feel they can be more open without consequences often.

@Usernameblankface That's fair enough on big communities but why not smaller ones?

@livus Lol yeah, it seems more people sit and maybe comment but there's just so much room for people to talk about the topic and even do there own posts but I guess most people just want to look at it and not interact.

@mrbubblesort I suggest to try Mbin it's got a lot of bug fixes as I was getting errors like that using Kbin (Also same UI or if not improved)

@orcrist It's more to do with Lemmy / Kbin / Mbin it seems like most people don't like to post.

@M500 Why do people think links to articles are the only thing you can post?

@infreq Why does it have to be articles? I've read a few of them that are connected from people on Mbin but I like genuine people posting on smaller communities and things.
