Knowing how hard it is to even create something small in blender that seems like a reach to get to straight away. I would more suggest smaller projects like designing little objects in your day to day life and see how well you can recreate them before hoping into something like a full realistic creature.
Yeah I use Mbin as of the moment and it can do most things just not Video ATM, Might have to check my lemmy account to see if I can actually watch content from PeerTube on there.
That sounds even worse, as the admin of PeerTube will have 100% control who they connect with and will have to know every instance in existence to be able to connect with the ones that the content that is good is on.
Yeah I think the only way 'creators' will be there is if there is something to move across these larger ones, or at least makes sense to cross-post between YouTube and PeerTube. It's going to be a hard battle to fight especially with PeerTube limited Space on most instances.
I've just signed up for access to MakerTube but yeah I agree, most Instances won't be able to host 5+ years of content from users making rather the user or the instance to rather have to delete the content or the user to create a 'second' channel to upload more. Hopefully with time, storage get's better and easier but quality of video files (and there for size) will most likely grow so it's really a cat and mouse game.
I think they are Federated, it's just hard to find users as one of the people on your instance needs to know what the creator is called before you can expand into, finding there content, this TBH kills the PeerTube experience as you need to use other instances or sources to find the creators you want to watch instead of just working like YouTube does.
A lot of people have jobs doing creative work like YouTube, even before the age of YouTube people where creating stuff such as TV Shows, Radio and Movies (Legacy Media). Sure a lot of people would still create something in free time but the reason people create quality content on places like YouTube is because they are being paid as a bonus, otherwise they wouldn't be able to spend as much time on the content they create.
It just puts smaller creators into a part that they won't be able to upload and that's the great thing about YouTube or most other Video Platforms is anyone can create. If the only people that can release content are the Elites then how will they be replaced in the future when they get burnt out, die or just want to move on?
That's what I'm saying, someone already has to follow, you are then relying on the other people on your instance. It's one of the downsides of the Fediverse in general but it's made even worse with Video as video takes up a lot of space making each instance has limitations on the users stopping them from releasing so many videos.
Like Imagine if someone like Casey Neistat was still releasing daily videos but they where limited due to the possible instance they where using it would suck as it would stop them from uploading there latest video. Hopefully this gets solved in the future with better storage solutions but still it costs a lot to host Video files and that's why most people go to YouTube over anywhere else ATM.
I would love to see PeerTube as well as other Fediverse Video platforms to grow, it's just quite hard for it to grow unless each instance has easily over 100GB per user that uploads.
Even know I wish to see PeerTube grow especially with people at minimum cross-posting, without a way for instances to find content easily without having to know about the creator before hand discoverability will be shockingly bad. Along with this decentralised platforms need to get easier for people to create themselves, as most people who know a bit about computers still don't know the first step of creating a PeerTube or other Fediverse Instance (I'd love to run my own Instances in the future).
PeerTube is a really great idea but without some way of people finding the content and or having more space to upload that content (As most PeerTube Instances have like a 5GB limit) then it sadly won't get there.
