Outside of PeerTube, you mean?

I still would rather have the possibility of no banners, not even the first time I open the page.

Oh that’s entirely possible, even with the current law as it is. All the developer has to do is to stop using cookies for anything that is not related to the functionality of the website.

But of course, the adtech bros won’t give up on their precious tracking, so they’d rather try and shift the blame with an empty argument along the lines of “Hey, the bad EU law is forcing us to bother you.”

The law only concerns cookies that are not strictly necessary to provide a service.

So the cookie to remember that you denied all non-necessary cookies could be seen as necessary and thus not require your consent.
