What's the situation with Peertube?
AFAIK, Peertube uses ActivityPub as well, but are Lemmy instances federated with them? I don't seem to see Peertube instances on my feed. It be cool to see Lemmy comments appear below Peertube videos.
Peertube channels seem to show up like communities in Lemmy. For example: !techlore@neat.tube
Damn, that's neat! Gonna follow Nick's channel (the linux experiment) from here.
edit: Okay, that worked really well. It shows on Lemmy as !thelinuxexperiment_channel@tilvids.com
!thelinuxexperiment_channel@tilvids.com
So cool that you can do this from your lemmy account. I wonder if comments on lemmy also transfer to Peertube 🤔
Huh, TIL. That's actually pretty damn neat that you automatically get that integration because of ActivityPub.
Just commented on a video from here, and it surfaced on the NewPipe app that I used to watch it. Really cool.
Communities -> Posts -> Comments = Channels -> Videos -> Comments (I think). The two platforms map to each other pretty cleanly.
Noting this doesn't appear to work for kbin.social - you can find the community (magazine) and subscribe, but it doesn't appear to be bringing in any content aside from some comments in the Microblog section... might be a federation issue.
If you are the first person from your instance to subscribe then there won't have been any content sent to your instance yet. Could that be it?
What? I'm using Jerboa and your link opens just an empty channel??!!
You may need to wait for your instance to retrieve the content.
I'll still try it with Jerboa, but it worked really well through the default UI (accessing your instance directly through the browser, as in feddit.nl/c/techlore@neat.tube for example)
I just tried subscribing to !sircmpwn@spacepub.space, but it's empty despite the peer tube channel having many videos. Any idea what's going on?
It's usually that you were the first to try to access the channel from your instance. So your instance has to federate with the other instance, which can take a while to fully take place (and I think that it only tries to get pre-federation content on request). I think that if you tried again, you should now see some content.
Very cool. Population of videos takes a while, but at least the ability is there. I still wonder how practical it is.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !metastatistical@lemmy.film
This is insanely cool! After dipping my toes in with Lemmy, I'm now tickled to discover all the plug-and-play aspects of the expanded fediverse!
They show up just fine for me on Mastodon which is pretty neat.
