For YouTube, there’s a separate (super terrible, barely functioning) YouTube Kids app that filters out non-kid-friendly content and only shows videos suitable for children.
Do you think PeerTube should have something similar — either officially made by Framasoft, or created by a third-party — that’s PURELY for kids’ content?
It could help parents and educators safely guide kids toward age-appropriate videos, while still being part of the Fediverse.
But it might also fragment the user base or require a lot of moderation work.
What do you think — would this be a good, or bad, idea for PeerTube?
I think it might make more sense to have a child friendly instance, that is heavily moderated, and only federates with selected instances. I’m not sure how an automatic filter would be able to reliably block inappropriate content.
This is a great point! Easier to separate the instance
