Here is a comment I posted on one of the videos of @[email protected]

This is helpful as you don’t need to create a Peertube account if you want to engage in the video’s comment section.
EDIT: Subscribing to the user like a Community is better than searching the video. Try this link if works in your instance - [email protected]
So if I understand, your instance needs to “discover” the user then subscribe to it before it shows up in your feed
However, you need to search the video in Lemmy before you can post your comment. I’m not yet sure why but my lemmy username is not (yet?) recognized in Peertube page:
On the other hand, more and more video creators on YouTube make the bulk of their money off of Patreon, rather than YouTube ads, and if it were possible to increase their Patreon subscriptions by posting to PeerTube as well as YouTube, interesting things could happen.
That would really surface the cost of video hosting, though
