Update 21/09/2024: #4734 (comment) EDIT by @unixfox: The Invidious team is aware of this issue. It appears that it affects all the software using YouTube. Please refrain from commenting if you have...
I mean, I still block all ads on YouTube, but they still make wayy more money than they need just to pay for the infrastructure. Peer tube would only need to make a fraction of what they make.
Another reason to ditch corporate pages and embrace freedom.
Do you know of an instance that is able to cover all their expenses with ads?
I want a peer tube instance with ads because I want to make sure my uploaded data is durable long-term
Why not just pay them? I feel like fedi is based more on that than ads, a lot of us on fedi hate ads.
Because that doesn’t sound sustainable
How is it different to other fedi projects/instances surviving off of donations?
Most will likely block the adverts anyway, so I fail to see how it’ll make money that way.

Have they added safety features like denying follows yet?
Also, they really need to create apps for all platforms, this would increase their popularity and usability.

So no, and it doesn’t even appear to be on that list.
Cool, seems like eventually they will.
Sadly the amount and variance of videos on peertube pales in comparison to youtube. I need my Sherlock Holmes audio books 😩
I really wish more youtube producers would cross post to other platforms.
