It's a chicken and egg issue. Nobody will create content on a platform with inferior usability.
Hard to capture that lightning
It's a chicken and egg issue for sure, but I think you've got the wrong egg.
Nobody will create content on a platform with few viewers. Nobody will be a viewer on a platform with few content creators.
I think they need an application that simultaneously posts to YouTube and PeerTube. So creators can effortlessly post to both the existing platform with all the viewers while also adding content to the alternative.
Similar how OBS can stream to YouTube and Twitch simultaneously.
That does sound like it would help.
