No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Peertube is a federated video platform. That means that like lemmy or mastodon, there's a huge number of different instances. My instance for example, is following 103 other instances, and is followed by 73 other instances. Each instance is hosted by different people, and each have different rules.
Because of the wide variety of instances, it's truly distributed and so all kinds of things are hosted there, from cat videos to porn and other stuff you typically can't host on other platforms such as covid conspiracy theory videos.
One peertube channel that is similar to what you're talking about is minetest videos: [email protected] It's consistently trending on my feed (but different sites will have different feeds based on what they are or are not federated to).
I think your best bet is to see what's out there, because there's a lot of content but it's sort of like old youtube.
If I were to become a youtuber today, I'd diversify. You can create a youtube channel and mirror it on peertube, for example. I think that some other alt-tech sites like rumble and bitchute have similar features as well, so you could set up a workflow where you post a video and have it show up on a number of different platforms.
The reason peertube is better than youtube is the same reason lemmy is better than reddit and mastodon is better than twitter; It's libre, distributed, and generally not algorithmically driven.
Oh, one other neat thing: If you ever have a peertube video just blow up and become super popular, peertube uses torrent style technology so video watchers automatically share pieces of the video with one another. Just a little neat thing that helps scale a video site whereas it's generally tough once you start getting popular.
