When updating a video, under Advanded settings > Video thumbnail PeerTube @peertube now lets you select a specific frame as the thumbnail directly from the video player.

A really handy interface not even YouTube has. The feature was likely released at least a few months ago but I only just noticed.

To improve metadata — and just for fun — I revised the thumbnails of all my videos.
