    When folks will stop with the “If Linux won’t become another Windows, it’ll fail” mentality? Linux is not Winblows – and we really mean it. To “increase adoption” users need to acknowledge (only) this – that both Windows and Linux differs from one another and that won’t change in any time soon.

      I don’t think PeerTube would work here, unless you mean a bot that posts PeerTube stuff from certain channels every so often.

      There is a bot around here that converts YouTube links to Piped ones.

        Haha, I just mean a bot that posts the peertube link instead of youtube just like the piped bot. It was a joke but it would be cool if there was one - but it should remind OP to post on peertube as well - probably a bad idea! 😅

          There is no such thing as “the peertube link” (emphasis added) because (a) as with Lemmy, there is no single canonical Peertube instance, and (b) unlike Piped etc., Peertube isn’t designed to mirror Youtube, but instead be its own platform.

          In other words, in order to post a Peertube link, somebody would have to explicitly choose to upload the Youtube video to a specific Peertube instance and then post the link to that.

    He makes a great point about separating “the FOSS crusade” from the linux discussion.
