@leanderlindahl @troed What they didn't realize, (for some unknown reason) that because it was a video app, and because there were multiple instances, that their app would be restricted in a bunch of different ways.
So to compensate, they created the monstrosity of an app that barely resembles PeerTube.
As a PeerTube instance owner, I prefer the mobile web version.
But if I didn't have my instance and I was just a viewer, I would use Mastodon to interact with videos.
(p2)
@leanderlindahl @troed You can search #PeerTube or #video or both and see a lot of new videos. Then when you reply, or favorite, it shows up on their PeerTube video as a normal favorite and reply.
The downside is that if you find the video on PeerTube you have to copy the url and search for it in Mastodon to interact with it. (I've heard rumors it's being worked on.)
It's not perfect, but it does what it's supposed to do.
