From a certain point of view.

We need an encyclopedia of posts/content like this that is the masterbook of Fediverse ops and scaling “how-to.”

Hi, this was automod. It catches heavily downvoted comments automatically. Often this can occur with content that does have to be deleted for safety. But you were not manually singled out for your opinion.

Worse, it’s a deep fried repost.

Like I said, I think they should wield their expertise towards making alt implementations of Mastodon and Lemmy that support multiple ways of video—paywall or otherwise—because the primary problem with video is always distribution and engagement. Miming YouTube more directly will always fail. It has for two decades now.

I am of the belief we do not need PeerTube at all.

We need a custom Lemmy instance that has video upload baked in, as well as a method of monetizing it for the server/“creator” (who is in a structural sense the moderator of the community to which it was uploaded).

Lemmy is simply better at distributing the information. PeerTube is a red herring and P2P video sucks. We need to make it easy for a server operator to have a mechanism for paying for the bandwidth (take payments and contain distribution to paying users, and account for bandwidth when distributing operating income after costs).

Bitcoin Cash my dude. If you’re doing Stripe, integrate BitPay.

There is a LemmyNSFW server if you’re interested in exploring this topic on a NSFW Star Wars community you create. Let’s not make this a trend, OP.

Yes. I don’t like to use Matrix much but if the council has foreseen it, my F key is ready.

Put me in coach Windu.

Nice!

The internet isn’t private by design. There are a limited scope of steps you can take to enable “privacy.” But this is a pointless article.

I think the current model under more mature circumstances is actually the ideal. You want sysadmins to experience the full cost-benefit analysis of running servers. They are functionally countries and should have the risks associated with running a country. A market-driven benevolent dictator/benevolent committee, where the server operators are highly motivated to be good actors, as is currently the case, is the ultimate freedom-security situation.

The risk of a server being able to “vanish” as it were is an essential risk for both community users and community managers to bear.

Mastodon is simply not as good. Lemmy achieves its objectives very cleanly and seems to leverage ActivityPub the best in the fediverse by far.
