I’ve had good luck by using https://peertube-search.com/ but beware, use an ad blocker because it’s pretty loaded with spammy ads. However, if you do that you can actually filter by language, category, upload date etc. Everything that should actually be available in the official search https://joinpeertube.org/browse-content
Personally, I don’t this will have much success because titok is driven by algorithms and influencers…it’s built for lazy scrolling consumers that follow the latest trends. People that use it don’t care about the data privacy or ethics of it, they just want to know what the latest song or dance craze is … Add to that ease of use to add graphics and music tracks. Also reach is everything.
