Because it doesn’t seem to work as I expected.
I thought if a peertube server follows another peertube server that all the videos that the second server uploads to any channel are automatically pushed into the timeline of the first server. That doesn’t seem to be the case though, I have seen multiple servers that follow each other but the videos posted on one are nowhere to be found on the other.
Why have this servers following servers thing then? Is it just a whitelist? But if it was a whitelist I shouldn’t be able to follow any accounts on other servers from an obscure pt account, which doesn’t seem to be the case also.
Soooooo, any ideas? Just bugs?
The best you can do is search for channels on https://sepiasearch.org/ and subscribe using your user id, ie. ‘peterblank@whatever_host_peertube_website’
The thing is that I have a channel and want to be found on other servers as well :)
