I’m trying to follow the Privacy Guides channel on the PeerTube app, but can’t seem to find it. How am I supposed to use this platform?

I’m trying to read this article, but all I see is a video thumbnail

I don’t think there is an article to read; the video has all the information.

The official PeerTube app only shows a select few instances.

You should go to whatever PeerTube provider you have a user at and install it as a web app on your phone.

I see how it works now, thanks. What an odd function to leave out of the official app.

I’m new to Peertube, how do I get good instances to follow?

Check out the two pinned posts at !peertube@lemmy.wtf. One is for selecting the right instance (platform) and the other is to find some interesting channels to follow.

Within the first 10 seconds it falsely claims Proton requires you to use an emailaaddress to create an account. I stopped after that.

Proton will often if not always require an email or phone number for verification when signing up for a free account. It’s not hard to find people complaining about this on forums.

Even if it is true, you can use a temp email service.

Chastity2323@midwest.social on 17 Mar 2025 00:51 collapse

Sure, but the point of the video is that the email requirement is not that big a deal for most people

They’re all overlapping and we need all of them.

Stop suggesting some people dont need all of them.
