I checked it out last night. I really wanted to like it, but man, it sucks. There’s currently very little content that I like and it seems to be a lot slower to load and navigate than YouTube. Even when i found something that I liked, the video kept buffering and buffering. It was overall a horrible experience. And i tried a couple instances. They all had those issues.
Comment on Youtube ads finally got me

Peertube is like early Youtube - people making videos for whoever might happen to be interested, without monetary incentive. Plus a lot of crazy mixed in.
Now I generally avoid all “free” commercial services that expect you to pay with your data or by watching ads.
If I want professionally made content, I have to pay real money for it, because making that content costs real money.
But there’s also still lots of people out there who make content for the fun of it, and it’s equally fun to explore that.

Can’t say there’s no crazy mixed in on PeerTube either lol. And as much as I’d love to like PeerTube… There’s just nothing that brings me back, content wise.
