You should use one of these nitter instances so you can see your follower count without logging in

I am quite famous in my house. Pretty much everyone here knows me.

Because videos are heavy and can be lost during federation, a PeerTube instance can only federate with another few instances and not with the entire network iirc, so the content is widely dispersed among PeerTube instances, which means that each instance has very little content.

This is why I think the solution would be to have a centralized open-source platform for this. Because there's no federation, people are encouraged to go to the main instance, meaning that it will be more alive.

What I'm about to say is probably dumb but... I think it wouldn't be really possible for PeerTube to become a serious alternative to YouTube, because of decentralization.

Like, sure, that may be a good thing in certain cases - we're literally on Lemmy - but I want to be able to access content from most PeerTube instances using one singular instance, which isn't really possible with PeerTube. As a result, the majority of instances feel dead.

I think what we need is an open-source and centralized alternative to YouTube (if that doesn't already exist), but I might be missing something.
