I'm looking to subscribe to some peertube channels and not go to youtube for entertainment.

Which ones do you recommend? Thanks in advance

Edit It can be for anything. For example gardening, news, tech, etc.

So this is a bit of self-promotion, but I can't think of a better way to link all of them in a neat way: Almost all the channels I recommend (excluding some that are on instances that did not allow mine to follow them, which makes the channel cards not load properly, sadly) are on the landing/home page of my instance, in no particular order:

Follow this link for the overview! - of course you can interact and follow from other instances (including other services like Mastodon). Lemmy does not work properly for following PeerTube channels in my experience, though - don't know about Piefed and mbin.

You can find a similar collection of channels on the landing page of peertube.wtf as well as a collection in a sticke post on [email protected]. too.

It's not Peertube, but as at least a step away from Youtube I've found a lot of my favourite creators immediately cross-post all their videos to Odysee (including electronics guys like Louis, Bigclive, GreatScott, etc) and I've also found some new channels to watch there. It's not a great site, it's marginally better than Youtube, which is not a high bar. For obvious reasons, I'm looking forward to finding recommendations in Peertube too though so I'll be watching this thread.
