im still debating wether i start a peertube channel or not, and im no pro but we all have to start somewhere. ive aksed variouse family member si know if i should do some sort of video content creation. i was thinking gaming but there are so many genres im not sure plus i have school and im worried it might make my life more stressful. does anybody here have experience with peertube, if so feel free to share something in the comments if possible. i also have somewhat of a low end pc that can manly run old titles and 2d games.

how do you even find motivation to keep posting video after video?

so is starting a peertube worth it or is now a good time to start?

Real talk, start a peertube channel but only if you're doing it alongside other platforms.

The top channels on peertube get maybe 70 views per video and they've got big organizations behind them quite often.

If you going to do it, do it because it's something you want to do, not because you expect views, or fans, or anything like that. If you happen to stumble upon success, great. But that's not something you should expect because more likely than not it'll just be yet another games channel.
