If this isn't a warning sign to leave YT as a creator, nothing will be.

unless you’re doing videos purely as a hobby, moving to PeerTube is just not doable. not when the most viewed videos on the platform (from people who also post to YouTube on parallel) are in the couple thousands, if that.
there’s no ad revenue on PeerTube, and with its puny audience, there’s no sponsorship or donation money either.
imo the best option, even if you’re a hobbyist, is to upload to both platforms and use that to funnel people to PeerTube (even if that means less revenue), or to use another platform like Nebula.
moving entirely to PeerTube is not doable for the vast majority of youtubers, unfortunately.
