I thought so too at first but if I’m reading the ‘Following’ filter on this page correctly then my best bet would be to go with Libre.Video (although the figures reported there don’t seem to match up with those reported by the instance).
Interesting. I might need to check on that. I have discussed with framatube in the past about discoverability. Also, the kodi app had been outdated for a while. I think they’re struggling with popularity. Youtube is still the monopoly and peertube probably doesnt have that much money to throw at competing. Also the p2p stuff sparked some privacy concerns. I‘ll have a look at my peertube instance later and check whats new.
Well using Libre.Video on NewPipe turned out to be a bust. It only plays Local video, everything on Recently added and Trending fails.
I tried to use Fedilab but it wont let me lurk, requires a login to use an instance which is not possible because Libre.Video has user registration disabled.
So now I’ve added Peertube 1312 to NewPipe, it appears to be following more instances and the Recently added, Local and Trending videos are all playing. I might be sorted.
So first of all, you can use a mastodon account (i dont know about other ap accounts tbh) to comment and vote on peertube. So thats not too bad imo. unless I‘m not getting something rn? I checked, my instance is online and trending works. You can check it out at https://peertube.giftedmc.com

Just a thanks, I was completely unaware you could add peertube instances to Newpipe. And here I am, so thank you :ಠ_ಠ

I haven’t used Mastodon since creating an account years ago but it’s good to know I can go down that route as an alternative.
I added your instance in NewPipe and Trending, Recently added and Local all work fine.
Great! :) enjoy. Feel free to leave some feedback on the local videos. I appreciate it.
