You only need a Peertube account – and the app, if required – if you’re a content creator and want to upload your own videos. You can watch videos without needing any account at all, either in your browser or on your mobile using an app, such as the Peertube app or NewPipe. SepiaSearch offers a comprehensive video search (covering a large number of selected instances).

If you want to subscribe to channels, watch, share or comment on videos in the Fediverse, you can do so from your Fediverse account, i.e. from Friendica, Mastodon, Sharkey, etc. You can also subscribe to Peertube channels and watch videos using your Lemmy account. I’m not sure, though, if all the features are available with Lemmy.

If I understand correctly, Hypatia will continue with a new maintainer and is now in the Izzy repo

Every Fediverse content looks a little different, depending on which access software or app you use to view it. It seems that there are also Lemmy apps that display hashtags a little too exaggerated, while in others and in the web-gui it is ok. (in an earlier version of the guide it also said that you shouldn’t use hashtags/tags esp. in the headline because it didn’t work properly back then).

But maybe I should include a note in the instructions that hashtags should be used sparingly or placed at the end?
