I’m a new peertuber (literally created the channel yesterday) and being on the fediverse for a good time made me think It’s a bit more harder to be discovered. It’s not just that I want to become internet famous, but also because a whole lot of content here is generally really bad. (I’m not talking about the shitposts, the info coming from videos are boring as hell, the thumbnails and titles meh.)
I love the fediverse, It’s tough to say but the videos here is quote-on-quote, really boring.
I’m not about to recreate the same mistakes, peertube could be something more than this.
unrelated: One thing I noticed is that youtubers do alot of collabs, and that’s probably why some youtubers get discovered quickly, in general generates alot of traction. However there isn’t really a center place to find other creators on peertube.
If there is any advice please don’t hesitate to tell me anything, and let’s discuss this for a bit, shall we?
Thanks in advance…
As a content creator, if you don’t think the current instances are good enough or doesn’t revolve around a topic you are interested in, I encourage you to create your own peertube. You can easily host peertube through Spacebear Federation. However, the lowest cost is 20$ a month, so it isn’t for everyone.
Think of what kind of content you can be enthusiastic about and create an instance for it that you believe others can be interested in as well.
I for instance am a juggler and I believe I can put out juggling content consistently. I therefore created a norwegian instance to promote earthspace mastery. An instance where you can inspire, give good excercises and network. You can post about playing the guitar, handstanding, singing or whatever.
These instances should revolve around the community. And connecting the content creators to each other will be essential for the instance success. I believe your focus should be networking when creating content, not views.
I believe one should make the instance as thematic as possible. Modify the CSS to make the instance feel different.
Here are two (norwegian) instances I have created for demonstration:
. Moder vår.
. Flytande Meistring
However, the text format may not be ideal for communicating my own or your ideas, so let me know if you are interested in having a voice chat instead.
I’ve actually been going around and round and kind of feeling alienated because of the fact that I haven’t been able to really find anyone who has much common interests. Probably better to self-host and let people come in this situation, anyway here’s what I’m interested in atm.
what is this by the way?
We can talk later, sure. However I’m still thinking whether or not doing something as making an instance, I’m not used to being some sort of owner/leader of something, I think It’s better to do it together with other people. anyway you use matrix?
I see that you have a solid set of interests. That’s great!
It’s a contrast to cyberspace. In other words it’s the offline realm:P
I’ve given you a pm:)
