When I tried it in the past, I kinda didn't take it seriously because everything was confined to its instance, but now, there's full-featured global search and proper federation everywhere? Wow, I thought I heard there were some technical obstacles making it very unlikely, but now it's just there and works great! I asked ChatGPT and it says this feature was added 5 years ago! Really? I'm not sure how I didn't notice this sooner. Was it really there for so long? With flairs showing original instance where video comes from and everything?

I asked ChatGPT

Why do people bring this up every fucking time?

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 95 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Because they know it's not accurate and explicitly mention it so you know where this information comes from.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 24 points 5 days ago (5 children)

Then why post it at all?

[–] Xkdrxodrixkr@feddit.org 26 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Because they'd still like to know? it's generally expected to do some research on your own before asking other people, and inform them of what you've already tried

Asking ChatGPT isn’t research.

AI seems to think it’s always right but in reality it is seldom correct.

If ChatGPT said it was added five years ago, that means it was added anywhere between 13.8 billions years ago and never.

Wanted to say: No, according to Wikipedia global search launched in 2020.

But that actually was 5 years ago, damn.

Getting older... There's a creaking in my bones... 2020 was 5 years ago...

Don't listen to them 2020 was like last year. Also the 90s was ten years ago don't let anyone tell you different.

I have to say I think Peertube itself is good, but the content still isn't there yet. Of course we all know that's because there isn't cash to be made on Peertube

Chatgpt is wrong BTW. But yeah its been there for a long time.

[–] Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 54 points 5 days ago (11 children)

Why the fuck do people ask ChatGPT for shit like this? ChatGPT doesn't know facts. It's a magic 8-ball with more words.

ChatGPT is correct? The irony of people confidently asserting that ChatGPT is wrong, while being wrong, seems to be lost on the crowd here. Kinda makes you understand why ChatGPT is often so confident even when wrong.

I must be doing something wrong or using a shit instance cause I can't find one at all but everytime I go to peertube (and I"m not searching just locally) I see like 3 videos get posted a day, most of which are videos about Lies of P or car videos. LIke there's no content.

so...what am I doing wrong?

[–] hisao@ani.social 18 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Either poorly-federated instance, or you look in the wrong place? Here's a good one: https://peertube.wtf/videos/browse?live=false

You asked ChatGPT and thought it gave you a correct answer…? 🤣

For real though, Peertube is awesome now. Live streaming works a treat, so many plugins and add ons that make it great. Not to mention it now has its own app which is great.

GrayJay also supports adding PeerTube instances:

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 12 points 5 days ago (4 children)

How are PeerTube instances funded? I'd imagine that the cost of running an instance is significantly higher than a Lemmy instance.

Yeah I finally made an account and there is more than enough here to satisfy my mealtime watching needs. Still not a lot of content when compared to the mainstream platforms, but that reminds me of all the fediverse offerings a few years ago.

I feel like it's only a matter of time before there's enough on peertubes to keep me off the mainstreams almost entirely.
