Like Peertube is sitting right there, but everyone that joined Mastodon instances is sharing YouTube links.
Yeah, but often the stuff you want to share isn’t on PeerTube. I think that’s more the issue than people not wanting to use it/share from it.
I don’t even use YT directly, always trough a privacy front-end. When I share however, I share the link to YT instead of to the front-end. There are multiple privacy front-ends, and for most devices there are ways to redirect those. By linking the original link, they can redirect to whichever they preffer.
A lot of stuff I follow is on Mastodon nowadays, and Lemmy isn’t as much about following specific people but topics and conversations. But a lot of channels I like are not on PeerTube. Only if they switch, or a lot of new equally interesting ones take their place, will linking PeerTube become the norm. But whenever I check PeerTube now, it’s just not that interesting.
