I'm thinking of excluding AI generated content explicitly in the terms of MakerTube. Background is that more and more generated content is uploaded and frankly resources are to sparse and costly to host this crap. What do you think? #peertube #makertube #terms #ai

Some technical updates regarding #MakerTube. I started building up a storage cluster to gain some operational experience with it. We will soon hit some plan limit on Hetzner for the backup (20TB) and the decision was either to use the managed object store (expensive) or do it on my own (more work). I will only use it for backups and block storage for now and see how it turns out. But in the long run I guess there is no way around it to keep costs in check. Let's see! #peertube #ceph
I started uploading my devlogs to #makertube

Looks like youtube import is broken again. Yt is blocking all proxy IPs and I don't have a work around. Please upload your videos manually for now #peertube #makertube #youtube

MakerTube just got upgraded to Peertube v7.1.0 🎉
New features are UI redesign, account verification on Mastodon, better podcast support and much more.
Check the blog post for details https://joinpeertube.org/news/release-7.1
#makertube #peertube #upgrade
There is a big inrush of people and registrations on #MakerTube after c't #heise (a big German publisher in IT) uploaded a video about alternative platforms to the big US owned ones. I'm going through the registrations and letting people in, but I can't accommodate everyone. There are just not enough resources, and the focus of MakerTube is limited, see https://makertube.net/about/instance/team
Maybe it's time to think about a platform with a bigger scope? #peertube

Good morning Fedi friends!
It's been 99 days since I started self-hosting my own Fediverse instances. Crazy how time flies!
I've been a bit absent from here this week because I started exploring the world of #PeerTube from the POV of a creator.
I just set up my own account on #MakerTube - so that I can write a guide that is accessible to many (as opposed to skipping this step and going straight to self-hosting).
Anyway, here is my PeerTube account: https://makertube.net/a/elena/video-channels
I have been able to follow it from #Mastodon and #Friendica without a problem, but I keep getting an error message when I try to subscribe with my #GoToSocial username. The exact message: "Cannot fetch information from this remote account." Does anybody have the same issue? (as in: people on GoToSocial, can you subscribe to PeerTube channels?)
Wishing you all a lovely day 🌞
P.S.: about to go offline for the rest of the day because... there's no pre-school in France on Wednesdays and the garderie keeps my little one up until 12:30. So apologies in advance if I'm slow to reply to messages.

I made another video! Somehow managed to have more skating hehe, and I though I would actually introduce myself a bit more <3
Hosted on #peertube thanks to #makertube
Sending lots of love, and please do consider supporting me on ko-fi 🖤 🏳️⚧️

I wanna move my PeerTube Channels over from MakerTube what should I do?
I have a few PeerTube channels on @MakerTube
The goal was always it to be a temporary home for my YouTube content. The time has come to help MakerTube by moving my content away from there system's freeing up storage space and not costing them a monthly price for hosting.
I've got a few options;
Option 1 -- I upload all channels content to this account. Making it a mix of gaming, vlogging and general posts I've done across video content.
Option 2 -- I create new accounts on solent.social where I upload these bits of content allowing me to boost it with my main account as a 'go check it out' system. (I'm questioning how I'd name them as I currently run two channels of "SamXavia" for vlogging / motorvlogging content and "SamXaviaGaming" for gaming content, but I could rather simplify this name or keep it the same as my main on here is Sam)
Option 3 -- I take more time and start up my own PeerTube instance to make sure that the content gets put onto PeerTube along with the rest of the Fediverse instead of where microblogging systems post to. This option doesn't give much benefit to me other than spending more money from what I can see but I might be missing something.
So help me, what do you think I should do? They are all okay options and have there benefits, but I do really want to make sure my content is out here on the Fediverse and it is better to have proper control / ownership of it.

I'm also thinking of a subscription model for MakerTube like Spectra is discussing it. Price increase at Hetzner's is hitting us quite hard (roughly +30%) and I don't know how to cover costs for future storage increase. Sadly I must say that the donation based approach has its limits. A good portion of the costs are covered by early adopters even though we see a constant growth in the user base. Wdyt? #peertube #makertube #finance #donations #hetzner #hosting #costs
This is a bit of a review of 2025 and an outlook to 2026 regarding #MakerTube. The platform matured a lot in the last year. We had a lot of growth, but also technical stability improved a lot. This is primarily thanks to the moderators while I could focus on operations. Thanks a lot for your work and support! Also, Framasoft is doing a great job to improve #PeerTube and incorporates our feedback. 1/4

Imagine a video website where you can just scroll through the most recent videos, and the majority of the videos bring a smile to your face...
Such a place is the peertube instance #MakerTube , which I'm glad to be able to contribute to. @MakerTube
