Yeah I really like tilvids. My main complaint with peertube in general is the big instances are full of wierd and chaotic videos which isn't that great for new people coming in. tilvids is a great example of what I think a better peertube instance is. It takes a genre that has variety but is still pretty straight forward, and it serves as a hub for that kind of video. Another instance like this is ConfTube which I don't use often but it's another similar situation. I would love to see more instances like this pop up in the future, maybe for gaming or music. Another thing that I think is great about it is that they aren't just unofficial reuploads, the people on tilvids are the actual creators.

Also for the pinephone and power I agree that further optimization is possible for sure, mobile linux is still a full blown desktop os that's been trimmed down for lighter devices. I think that mobile linux could definitely use more power, especially as a convergent os.
