Seems feasible considering every attempt to discuss using more Fediverse just gets ignored. Like Peertube is sitting right there, but everyone that joined Mastodon instances is sharing YouTube links.
But people are like this in general, so it might be just predictable behaviour.
Friendi.ca is a Facebook alternative, but I don't want to leave anonymity again.
Pixelfed is a good Instagram alternative.
Yeah, but often the stuff you want to share isn't on PeerTube. I think that's more the issue than people not wanting to use it/share from it.
I don't even use YT directly, always trough a privacy front-end. When I share however, I share the link to YT instead of to the front-end. There are multiple privacy front-ends, and for most devices there are ways to redirect those. By linking the original link, they can redirect to whichever they preffer.
A lot of stuff I follow is on Mastodon nowadays, and Lemmy isn't as much about following specific people but topics and conversations. But a lot of channels I like are not on PeerTube. Only if they switch, or a lot of new equally interesting ones take their place, will linking PeerTube become the norm. But whenever I check PeerTube now, it's just not that interesting.
