Ideally the solution would be finding alternatives for creators to make money, sponsorships is one, they can make money on those no matter the platform and where they get viewers, same with support platforms like patreon and kofi.

The goal would be to watch videos there so creators have a reason to cross post and then support them in other ways, if possible, mentioning peertube as the avenue you watched them.

Cross posting to a peertube instance should be pretty light weight for creators and we should encourage it.

The tough part about something like Friendica is that it’s usefulness very dependent on how many of your friends are on it. You’d need a group of friends to all join together for it to stick.
