Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome ๐ŸคŸ๐Ÿ˜

EVERY video is slow. Dunno what to tell you. Maybe it's because I'm on the arse end of the world, but it's always a crapshoot whether or not a peertube video will actually load for me or not. Even this one buffered for ~30 seconds before it started playing, which is just too long for it to be a viable yt replacement just yet. I'm getting > 100 mbps down on this machine, so it's not my connection

ETA: I will say, after writing this, I tried a few others, and it does seem to be better than the last time I tried it, so maybe this was hasty. They do still buffer much more than yt, but they seem to play consistently now at least

They did a TON of work on the UI lately. And the federation works a lot better last couple of years. Mostly due to community servers popping up. Glad you are getting it a bit better now than before.

For me it loaded up almost immediately...but I also have 1000+ MBPS connection so....take that with a grain of salt.
