For finding content on PeerTube, I would recommend using https://peertube-index.net/.
It searches across all known instances, not just the current one and its federated instances.
I had to type it, because my all-experimental phone and/or browser makes my tabs unload at random, if I switch to another tab. And if it does that, I have to type the comment again.
It’s a super helpful link that I hadn’t seen before. I am really excited that their roadmap has livestreaming as part of it! The peertube-index link was also an excellent tool I hadn’t seen before.
Right now, to navigate the fediverse, I think it’s good to have this collage of tools all bookmarked, that are kind of scattered all over the place. Here’s a list of all the different tools on the fediverse, there’s a good frontend that makes mastodon nicer, here’s a list of instances with good block lists, and there’s a place that rounds up android apps, etc. etc. And despite having bookmarked a lot of these I didn’t know about the global peertube search.
And yeah, I’ve been trying to just use the Fediverse without resorting to these tools too much, but without a global search for PeerTube, you almost can’t actually use it, especially on smaller instances. You’re just not going to find many videos to watch. And it really doesn’t matter too much to me on which instance I watch a video.

It’s planned to have this kind of search built into PeerTube v3: https://joinpeertube.com/roadmap
That url should be .org: https://joinpeertube.org/roadmap
Well, crap. And thanks.

If you want some background info on their roadmap, you should also read this: https://framablog.org/2020/05/26/our-plans-for-peertube-v3-progressive-fundraising-live-streaming-coming-next-fall/
