I'm new here just like most other folks, but from what I've seen so far is: Lemmy is a place to post links to your content, Peertube is the place to post your videos, Pixelfed is the place to post GIFs and short videos. Lemmy can handle picture uploads, but not much more than that right now.
But none of these instances is going to survive if users don't donate. All those corporate social media sites were free because you weren't the customer, you were the product.
This is the way I see it too. It would be nice if along with the recent growth in Lemmy, if we also had a growth in Peertube instances that could be used for publishing and linking video.
