My guess/experience.

- several spam attackes in the last few years led to a lot of defederation of poorly moderated instances.

- opt in federation model combined with lazy and/or overworked sysops

- desire to curate the recent videos feed by excluding possibly problematic federation partners.

Have you tried using Podcasting apps that support video? PeerTube added podcasting 2.0 RSS feeds a few versions back. The subscription process is pretty easy.
