So I feel like I'm doing peertube wrong. I'm trying to find good content, but it feels like every single instance I find is just "here's the linux news, here's the new linux tips, here's the linux gossip, linux linux linux!"

And I do not give a shit about linux. I learned long ago that I'm not smart enough to figure it out. I just want to find the non-tech, non-video game content. I don't know what I'm doing. I want to search all the instances, all at once, and see what the system recommends.

I don't have a peertube account. I have a piefed account. I'm not against getting a peertube account, but at this point, it's ruining the whole point of the fediverse. If I need to register for a peertube account to have a decent experience, what's the point in having all these services be interconnected. Registering for peertube account would be the THIRD account I would have for the fediverse. But at this point, I just want to find the content.

It would be easy to add a post type filter to the search function, then sort it by date... Would that do?

Ideally of course the usual Hot/Top/New/Active, but a search filter would already be a huge improvement on what's out there!

I think I would use it pretty regularly in periods when I have time to kill.

@andrew_s@piefed.social added a software filter to the search!

Here's all the recent PeerTube posts - https://piefed.social/search?q=&community=0&type=0&language=0&software=peertube&sort_by=date&submit=Search

Amazing!

The pace and responsiveness of development in PieFed is unlike anything I've seen before. It's a brilliant platform, thank you so much for developing it!
