Remember remote account used

[iacore]

Describe the problem to be solved

Currently on PeerTube, remote subscribe/comment takes many click, and typing in my username.

This discourage people to use external Fediverse account (not PeerTube) to interact.

Describe the solution you would like

I made a userscript that fills in my username for me.

Maybe PeerTube can cache my username in LocalStorage, and skip the popup, go directly to my Fediverse instance page.

Hello,

I'm not sure how we can handle this since the local storage would be scoped to each peertube instance. I may be an interesting use case for https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/peertube-companion/ (ping @Booteille)

Hi!

Thanks for pinging me.

As soon as I have the time to work on it, I would like to try to implement the ability to log-in to a PT account inside PeerTube Companion and be able to interact on any PT instance transparently (commenting, liking, etc.), without having to relog again.

Unfortunately, I can't give you any ETA since I have rarely the time to code.
