Completely fair, I made this post assuming that ‘anyone on fediverse social forums obviously knows what PeerTube is,’ thanks for pointing out the flaw in my unconscious biases, I’ll keep it in mind if I make more posts like this.

Essentially, PeerTube is to YouTube what Lemmy is to Reddit, a network of video streaming websites where the content of each website is, in theory, accessible through other instances in the network. I made this post in an effort to identify common reasons people who try PeerTube can’t stick around.

Yes, sexual harassment is unethical.

videos ain’t that the truth

My contribution is that PeerTube lacks variety in it’s ‘unimportant’ videos. It’s easy on monopolistic platforms to be able to search any given topic and be fed with whatever movie trailer, or obscure game footage you’ve suddenly been stricken with a thirst for.

It’s a self-sustaining problem, I suppose. My understanding is that PeerTube improves performance by distributing video streaming across instances that have frequently requested particular videos, and p2p streaming with concurrent viewers. Video streaming isn’t exactly an easy task on servers, and the solution requiring adoption doesn’t help.

Yeah, that’s true. Thinking about it more ‘just block them’ only really works if they aren’t most of the platform. I make most of my posts to encourage discussion, and I don’t see repost bots doing much to that end.

I promise 🙏 forgive me?

Oh yeah, no, that shouldn’t happen.

sorry, my page reloaded while editing and I assumed it hadn’t sent.

Does blocking not work? I’m not the biggest fan of repost bots myself, but they exist for a specific purpose (however tenuous their ability to achieve it may be.)

That makes sense, my comment was originally going to be something along the lines of a lack of foreplanning, or sustainable development, but I felt unequipped to comment on in in any depth given I have no experience. I feel like the factors you mentioned could have been avoided, if the United States served the best interests of it’s people.

Americans having the cheapest fuel in the first world, and still being crippled by the cost says a lot, I think, but I don’t know how quite to express it. Res ipsa loquitur.

Worst thing about Windows imo

Convenient solutions are the best.

I didn’t know that kind of jewellery was called ‘wire weaving’, TIL. I love the detail on them.

Looks nice, I wish you luck with your gardening endeavors :)

That’s a brilliant solution, I had never even considered anything along those lines. Sounds like you’ve really helped some people out - I’m absolutely saving this template for later use.

The level of attention to detail 3D artists can wind up creating is absolutely breathtaking, and seeing the end result here? Gorgeous. Thank you for your contribution :)
