My gut tells me we should defed all corporate instances as a matter of policy. Our uniqueness is at jeopardy , think of threads like the borg.
This by no means a expert explanation. But as I understand it peertube and owncast are video sharing sites that operate much like lemmy but for video. So people start platforms ( like a instance on lemmy ) and then other people can join said platform and watch the videos , however like lemmy you can watch videos across all platforms ( I assume much like lemmy as long as the platform admins allow ). Both peertube and owncast say they are Fediverse projects and as such it should be possible to access the videos on other fediverse enabled applications although not sure how well this in implemented.
I have to say as youtube alternatives I think they fit the bill best as it is free to watch , open source and quite an elegant solution , clearly early days but none the worse for that imo
Under the hood I believe it is a distributed load system ( a bit like the BBC’s Iplayer ) but that is beyond my pay grade.
EDIT
BTW peertube = youtube alterative owncast = twitch alternative tilvids = peertube platform
No problem connecting with jerboa here but can not login on my laptop, have deleted the cashe and site data to no avail Edit spotted the reset pass fix, bit of a messy solution but heyho am back
Can I just quickly mention that I for one really appreciate the work done by @ruul to keep this instance working as well as it does , thank you.
Just wanted to say thanks Ruud for all the work and expense. Your diligence is obvious. Thank you.
This, Refreshing 😀👍
Clearly a case of “can’t see the wood for the trees” corking work there 👍😀
Also useful ammo if you get attacked by the current anti lemmy stuff going around.
That sounds very plausible
Realistic assessment but the way reddit’s ceo is going ,I think we will see more exodus 1st july and again shortly after that, I do think reddits bad news train has only just left the station.
This, methinks we have a wondrous opportunity to develop something just better.
Read the thread if you have not , some really good ideas and recommendations here IMO
Luckily there are a large number of instances , and I hope that will also grow now the “place that shall not be named” exodus has begun, I think the greater numbers and variety will improve the gene pool so to speak I sort of hope that really large reddit subs might start there own instances.
This is a sound plan, even if it is only temporary till we hit that critical mass
Are, yep it links but does not show the posts or the correct number of subscribers, although it appears I could post, so that’s something 👍 thanks
Yep bit of a problem ATM, I made two accounts one kbin one lemmy world and made communities in both , I was able to see kbin from a lemmy instance but not now for some reason any help appreciated 🙏
I am just never going back, lemmy has less content of course but the comments on what is here is just a totally different level, reddit just feels dirty and corrupt in comparison,
