I see people sharing links to peertube, youtube, streamable, imgur, and other sites in communities in order to share videos. For the non-federated ones, it’s understandable if there is no option, but for content creators, is it possible to share a video directly from peertube into a community?
I don’t know if it’s possible by adding @[email protected] for example in the text of a description and then removing it or doing something else.
The goal here is that when sharing the video, the comments on the video are also sent to the video’s page. Is that possible?
I know you can do it from mastodon, so I suppose you could also do it from lemmy. For example if I want to comment on a peertube video (without having an account on the peertube instance), I just paste the url of the video into my mastodon account’s search bar which brings it up in the results as a post, and from there I can Favorite it and/or reply to it. The fav adds 1 to the likes and the reply appears as a comment on the video.
Also from that post I can click on the profile and then Follow so all their video posts from then on will show up in my timeline.
