From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Haha, I just mean a bot that posts the peertube link instead of youtube just like the piped bot. It was a joke but it would be cool if there was one - but it should remind OP to post on peertube as well - probably a bad idea! 😅

There is no such thing as "the peertube link" (emphasis added) because (a) as with Lemmy, there is no single canonical Peertube instance, and (b) unlike Piped etc., Peertube isn't designed to mirror Youtube, but instead be its own platform.

In other words, in order to post a Peertube link, somebody would have to explicitly choose to upload the Youtube video to a specific Peertube instance and then post the link to that.
