A search engine that makes videos across the whole PeerTube network actually findable
Peerseek is a federated video search engine for PeerTube. It continuously crawls public PeerTube instances, indexes their videos in PostgreSQL, and serves a fast JSON API and web UI at peerseek.video. At the time of writing it indexes roughly 940,000 videos from about 1,600 instances.

Isn't Sepia Search already supposed to do something like that? What are the differences?

https://polykit.rocks/peerseek-federated-peertube-search/ goes into that.

Finally. I really want to like PeerTube, but the fact that a Mastodon or Threadiverse client works better than their official app is really frustrating.

Seems like a great idea, only one problem though. Should've been called peerseer.
