PTIndex
git.btfree.org
Repository for managing the PT Index for our self hosted moderated Peertube Index that can be used by others. This also includes the script to manage the PT Index easily.

I love the Fediverse. I love Peertube. Our strength is we’re decentralized. Our weakness is we’re decentralized. How do we find like instances and things WITHOUT an algorithm?

Well I run tubefree.org. I know Makertube.net is a good instance. I follow that instance. However, I trust the admins there, why not follow who they follow? Thus we have a chain of trust.

How do I do this easily though? I came up with a script: https://git.btfree.org/BTFree/PTIndex

Want to USE the index on YOUR Peertube so you follow everyone I follow, and follow those I trust and who they follow? Go to your Peertube - Settings - General - Federation - Check “Automatically follow platforms of a public index” - Index URL: https://ptindex.btfree.org/ .

Want to be involved in the chain of trust? Message me! I’m here @ozoned@piefed.social , @ozoned:matrix.org , ozoned.01 on Signal, @ozoned@btfree.social on Fedi, ozoned@btfree.org via email.

    As someone whose instance is already on your list, I greatly support this! Everyone should definitely use this list, and that’s an unbiased opinion.

      Awesome! Which server is yours? We all need to get together as Peertube Adkins and figure out more things we can do to help the ecosystem! :-)

        It’s just my personal server for my own videos, which is nearing 1000 at this point. I’m also still in the process of uploading/transcoding everything so it’s a bit wonky still :D
