A suggested feature for Peertube, similarly to Lemmy communities. (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Peertube has a lot of great potential, however it can be hard to find content on it. Sepia Search works, but it doesn't always show videos from all local servers. My suggested feature is, some sort of Lemmy communities like feature for Peertube where local servers can create communities for specific types of videos. The communities ideally would be managed at the server level made on any Peertube server. users on and off the server could have an ability to upload to the community a video related to that topic.

I feel if Peertube does this, this is the missing features it needs, and then give it about 2-4 years and it might have more activity, and content because now people can more easily find specific content.

This is because Sepia Search has a much larger index of videos than https://periscope.numenaute.org/

Here's a search for "Rayman 2" at PeerTube.wtf, which uses the same index as Sepia Search: https://peertube.wtf/search?sort=-match&searchTarget=search-index&resultType=videos&search=rayman+2

This is why I was suggesting a community like feature similar to Lemmy, for Peertube.
