PSA: Newpipe is a very nice peertube client (feddit.it)

I have always found following peertube channels from mastodon to be a rough and cumbersome experience, especially since the mastodon clients do not display videos, they need an external browser.

I found that Newpipe can show peertube videos and supports channel membership, with optional notification for new publications. It also shows likes and comments. A very smooth experience.

I guess my initial problem would be solved with peertube redirect, allowing me to open peertube videos from mastodon in Newpipe, but for now I don't feel I need this further step

I thought opening a peertube account as you suggest, but I find it is a bit of a waste to have yet another personal fediverse account, to do something I can theoretically do with a mastodon one,: follow peertube channels, like and comment videos.

I see 2 solutions thst would be right fit

a mastodon client that can visualize peertube videos. Fecilab probably can Di that, bu I like Pachli most
an app to watch peertube videos that opens when I click a peertube link. In theory "peertube redirect" can do exactly this, but I tried to set it up with newpipe an it didn't work.

No big deal: with Newpipe subscription and following accounts from mastodon, I can already do what I want without a big fuss 🙂
