I still don’t get how to actually use peertube beyond links that other people post here on Lemmy.

You can use https://sepiasearch.org/ to search across most PeerTube instances, and you can use NewPipe to view videos too (you have to add each instance you care about manually)

I haven’t used it much either as often times the instances I would make accounts to would go offline on me

Me neither. The platform doesn’t have an app for that matter. I use YouTube instead just fine.

It's a federated system just like Lemmy, Mastodon, ...

(One of the) first step would be to find an Instance that you might like to join. https://joinpeertube.org/instances

Then, an App that can also handle peertube would be e.g. NewPipe - which is also a very good 3rd party app for YouTube and alike. https://newpipe.net/
