"@yausername put much effort into adding a fourth service to NewPipe: PeerTube. In case you do not know PeerTube, one can describe it as an open source decentralized video streaming platform.

NewPipe supports most of PeerTubes native features like searching, playing and downloading videos or reading comments. There is one structural point which differs PeerTube from all other so far supported services. Because PeerTube is decentralized, there are houndreds of instances available in the fediverse. We choose to use FramaTube as default instance, because the main organization behind PeerTube is the software developer Framasoft. NewPipe allows you to select the instances you like and add them to your personal list. You can switch between them seamlessly."

      I know, right? I’m stoked! This is going to make Peertube easier than ever to get noticed! I’ve been using Peertube a lot more since both 2.0, and once I learned that NewPipe added support! I actually went onto their GitHub and installed the APK early so I could get Peertube support early!
