Seeking a Peertube server for animation, question about streaming

I recently returned from my trip to the seaside and have been thinking of what to do from here on. I've been fighting demotivation in getting new work done even if I'm still on it, which has been going for a variety of reasons. One is that I'm legitimately unsure where I can safely post my work any more, image video and games alike... the ideological bullshit is getting worse by the day, I'm frankly sick of constantly feeling someone's breathing over my shoulder and I have to justify myself to the owners of every platform to create whatever the heck I feel like drawing or rendering. On top of having the world itself against me, it feels like whenever I do manage to create something nice I end up driving more people away and losing patrons: Earlier this year I literally created my first (almost) finished game from scratch, yet I went from a bare minimum of some 60$ a month to nearly 30$ per month which I can't even payout to my account due to how small the sum is... it's like everything is working in reverse, the more I try the less anyone cares. I'm actively pondering if and when I may have to just shut down my Patreon and stop making stuff, just waiting for the money to run out and everything to be over; Especially with the added stress of potentially getting banned for anything "immoral" I might create including what I do elsewhere, part of me just wants to be done already... it's not an actual decision so don't worry, but at the same time I don't even know any more at this rate.

For now I've been thinking about the first issue: One of my biggest problems is having no proper place to safely post my animations. Considering I use Mastodon and am gravitating toward the fediverse, I've been exclusively thinking of using Peertube as a platform, mainly as I only trust decentralized systems at this point in time. But as usual the question is which server do I choose? I took a look at https://joinpeertube.org/instances and https://instances.joinpeertube.org/instances but it's hard to see the specifics such as their rules. I was hoping someone else might be able to help me here: Do you know of any fitting Peertube instance where I can post animation without needing to worry? This might help quite a bit in being able to share and keep making animated content. The criteria I'm looking for servers to match at least roughly:

In addition I have a second question I'd like to ask here: I've been seriously considering streaming, particularly of quality FOSS games which are themselves an underrated category. I have a Twitch / Trovo account but never streamed myself, and it's definitely something I could see myself doing! I have everything I need for it including a quality webcam... less for a dual monitor setup since I literally don't want two monitors but who needs that. It seems really fun and maybe I'll get to interact with people in a positive way for a change. Who here would be interested in watching me play games as well as potentially doing some mapping?
