Why are peertube channels federated like a magazine or a community on lemmy?

I've been using for a while since reddit exodus, but it wasn't until like a week ago that I decided to create an account. It's been great, it is the best way for me to experience the , I used mastodon and firefish before, but I think I like more the community format, and not losing the possibility to follow accounts and see their posts it's just awesome, one of the reasons why I chose it over .

Another project I'm really invested is , I tried to follow a channel and it shows on kbin with the magazine format and on lemmy like a community. Why is that? Wouldn't make more sense to be a profile? While being a magazine/community, everyone is able to post there. (At least to my understanding)

I was looking at @dot_social and in Kbin, it does not show any content, nor does @thelinuxexperiment_channel, while on lemmy @thelinuxexperiment_channel does show the description of the video, but @dot_social doesn't but it shows a post made from mastodon by one of the members of flipboard.

Is this something intended to be like this? I don't really understand the at a low level, recently I was told it has two formats notes and pages, does it have to do with this?

I don't think kbin is intended to work. While you can follow things, peertube does some different things that if not designe in will not work. It would be nice, but Ernst has a lot of other work

TheFederatedPipe,

@bluGill Yeah, it is completely broken with kbin. I understand there is too much to be done, I would not like to be on Ernest shoes right now, but this is an incredible project that is available for free, and is open source. Thanks for the hard work and all contributors!

I think I remember Ernest mentioning at some point that better Peertube integration is on the todo-list, but there's of course more pressing issues out there.

Another related issue is a.gup.pe-groups, which could potentially be cool if implemented well.

There's also ongoing developments to add groups to Mastodon, which will probably set some sort of standard for groups in the Fediverse. It might make sense to wait until this is ready before putting too much work into supporting other types of groups, though at this point it's of course quite a bit of a different issue from Peertube support. :)
