Should PeerTube potentially have a dedicated “Kids” app? (lemmy.world)

For YouTube, there’s a separate (super terrible, barely functioning) YouTube Kids app that filters out non-kid-friendly content and only shows videos suitable for children.

Do you think PeerTube should have something similar — either officially made by Framasoft, or created by a third-party — that’s PURELY for kids’ content?

It could help parents and educators safely guide kids toward age-appropriate videos, while still being part of the Fediverse.

But it might also fragment the user base or require a lot of moderation work.

What do you think — would this be a good, or bad, idea for PeerTube?

I love this idea. I gave up on YT Kids because the default allow was too difficult to lock down.

I'm just curious, would teenagers be included in the (hypothetical) PeerTube Kids app, or should there potentially be (hypothetically) another third-party app, but called something like PeerTube Teens, or something similar?
