Add PeerTube as a source for video search

I do think that if Kagi will be able to show more video sources in the video search then YouTube this in my opinion could bring Kagi to another level
For example
Nebula.tv
Peertube
although Ted is already there if I search for Space in video search and select Ted on Kagi it shows " There are no results for
space
Based on your current filters"
Ted:
https://www.ted.com/talks?q=Space&sort=relevance
What I mean is that the video search automatically prioritizes YouTube, and in Ted's case is an example that it finds nothing
The same with https://www.dailymotion.com/us
Example video "Tesla Recalls Another 2.2 Million Vehicles" (Random video from the home page)
Searching for it in video search only shows youtube videos and when i selecting dailymotion it shows " There are no results for..."

Agreed this is a great idea.

In the meantime, I wonder how well a custom Kagi lens might work for this instead?

Is there a peertube search api we can use?

I fear you'd probably have to spin up your own instance to be able to use the search functions of peertube

https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-rest-reference.html#tag/Search is the documentation on the API.

There is now an official search index by the developers of peertube (framasoft)

Great to see Kagi now searching PeerTube in video search. A suggestion to also include account bios and channel descriptions in the search. If I do a search for a word which is in the bio of a PeerTube account or in the description of a PeerTube channel, but not in the account name or in the video name, it doesn't come up in the search results.
