What’s the most “mainstream” peertube instance? All I’ve seen is niche gaming stuff. Is there an instance that is more of a youtube replacement?

im a big fan of not marketing your product until it can do the things you intend. theyve been spamming loops everywhere for over 6 months.

On iOS? Mlem rocks!

[fxomt@lemm.ee]

tilvids probably. For the most mainstream general instance? Probably none. But freediverse, spectra and WTF are probably the best for it (imho ofc)

[fxomt@lemm.ee]

I didn't know that, thanks. I still think it's a little weird over just using something with the standard Lemmy icon, but it's a great image eitherway (lacking apps though)

Gotta collect them allll… FEDIVERSE!

[ulrich@feddit.org]

Because it's brand new and will eventually federate. The developer is deep in the fediverse so 100% it will

[reseller_pledge609@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

I know Voyager does.

[supermurs@kbin.earth]

Thanks mate! I haven't quite figured out how to use PeerTube yet, but I was able to join Freediverse now.

[fxomt@lemm.ee]

no problem enjoy it, youll have access to most content with that instance!

[kat@orbi.camp]

But right now it doesn't....

[cmlvi@lemmy.world]

It's also very featureless. Basically videos, comments, likes. I'm on it, and I've opened it maybe 6x in 2 weeks? I also think it's just an open feed; all the videos posted in chronological order (but I could be wrong here). Idk if this goes against the Fediverse creed to have an algorithm-fed feed, but I think part of the nature of these short form, endless-scrolling apps is finding vids about your interests from new places.

With the Tiktok ban I think marketing it prematurely has been a good thing and introduced a number of people from that world into the fediverse.

[ulrich@feddit.org]

It's really not a technicality to get worked up about.

[buttdrugs@lemm.ee]

I think we should ultimately support algorithm feeds, but they should be free and open algorithms that can be peer reviewed, and also maybe give the users some control over which algorithm is applied and how. The problem with current social algorithms is they operate in the dark and are manipulative, not that they provide relevant content to users.

Am I the only one who is bothered by this pic. It looks so fake and photoshopped.

Maybe it’s because my phone has weird contrast settings for accessibility.

Obviously I think whoever made this pic has great intentions and it’ll definitely be good enough for an article banner or something which is what it’s most likely to be used for.

Here is Elena's message on mastodon about it: https://mastodon.social/@_elena/113899740641675793 I guess you can always provide some feedback!

[cmlvi@lemmy.world]

That, and it's arguable primary purpose is to serve ads. "People similar to you clicked on these ads" type shit. And I get it to a point, platforms need to support themselves, and unless it's a paid app, that doesn't keep servers running. But it'd be nice to just get one every 10 minutes, and not every 10 seconds, and also to opt out of tracking for served ads instead of just random ones.

Nah I’m not gonna dunk on her effort. I’m glad she made it. Don’t wanna be a downer to her.

But it just looks off to me.
