It is kind of a FOSS Youtube, where peer-to-peer helps for the downloading, and which can in theory share a pool of videos with similar FOSS kind of Youtubes.
It is also part of the Fediverse, which means that you can interact with it ( (dis)like, comment, subscribe) directly from Mastodon instead of having to create an account there. In particular, if you subscribe to a channel, new videos will appears as toots in your Mastodon timeline.

So maybe a bit of precision.
Peertube is a video platform, just like Mastodon is a microblogging platform.
However, you were not that wrong in that TILvids is a instance that specializes in a type of videos, namely edutainement.

tilvids.com is a Peertube instance, just like mastodon.social is a Mastodon instance. So, when I previously said "a kind of FOSS YouTube", I really meant a Peertube instance.However, you were not that wrong in that TILvids is a instance that specializes in a type of videos, namely edutainement.

You've got it right. PeerTube is a platform technology that tilvids.com uses. Our community is focused on edutainment content, so it would be most accurate to say TILvids is a PeerTube community that focuses specifically on edutainment content.
A general-purpose Mastodon server with a 1000 character limit.
@tilvids nice video you have there but I still don't know what it is you do other than being an OSS YouTube.
