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?

I'd say go for it. Even if you don't make a lot of content right away, you can still get a feel for how Peertube works, how to set up your channels, add thumbnails, how to automate closed captioning, etc.

Plus the hardest part will be choosing an instance, looking at the videos posted and seeing if you want your videos on that instance (extreme politics, NSFW stuff, etc). Plus see what their instance rules are; anyplace that says everyone is welcome here is eventually going to become a gathering spot for a--holes that got banned somewhere else.

I started my channel about a month ago during the Reddit migration. So far I've fallen behind on putting out videos, but it's still a fun hobby.
