    i find that the lack of community videos really holds me back from using lemmy as a primary website, but i do understand that video hosting is expensive, just kinda sucks

      I’m not big on video content so that doesn’t bother me at all, but I could see how that might hold some people back if they prefer that. Funnily enough, I often won’t click a link if I see it goes to a video instead of an article.

      That being said PeerTube is in the works, still a ways to go but it’s comin’

        The best use of peertube might actually be integration with the rest of the fediverse - post from peertube buttons might actually make sense

        It’s not monetizable so it’s not worth it for big content creators, but it’s absolutely perfect for posting a quick video for sharing via mastodon, kbin or lemmy

          I agree! That seems like a great thing to add to the Fediverse road map. There are other more pressing issues that need to be worked on first but I’d love to see that level of integration eventually.
