Lemmy instances with *key instances!

Huh?

Phanpy is phenomenal and fixes a lot of the problems Mastodon and all microblogging platforms have.

It’s not a scam. The retailers don’t care where the money comes from.

It’s just a terrible terrible idea.

I’ve had several stitches and broken bones but it beats having hypertension and diabetes or whatever else.

I don’t usually train through injuries, just take a little break and find some other exercises to keep my body moving and my heart pumping, if I can.

It goes unpunished because it’s not illegal.

If you have evidence otherwise, feel free to share.

I didn’t say “unpunished or hard to enforce”.

Well, we’d have to be more specific about what parts of the “user experience” we’re talking about here in order to make that assessment.

I’m mostly talking about discoverability, the default algorithms, the lack of federation, and a way to actually filter content by language.

I really don’t think it is.

The two biggest issues are actually not software related

I disagree, the biggest issues are related to discoverability, and most certainly software-related.

Peertube has the issue that its not very popular, so creators have to really plug their stuff.

Not necessarily. They only need to agree to allow an instance to mirror their content, and possibly one day contribute something to it in the event that it becomes popular enough. For now, consent is really all that’s required. The only revenue they’re missing out on is AdSense.

Its not profitable for creators UNLESS they add a way to monetize. Some argue that with secondary sources such as patreon, its not an issue, But I just don’t see it.

Patreon is one of many different ways to generate revenue. Most popular Youtubers are diversifying in various ways. The most effective of which is creating their own products and using their channels to promote them. Affiliate links/codes is another way smaller creators can diversify.

I like the ability to post my videos and get comments without getting flagged for whatever on Youtube.

As always, with freedom comes abuse. Youtube has a lot of regulations that can be cumbersome but also can protect creators and users.

Hosts and users who want their stuff available to their audience without YouTube’s bullshit.

sundar pinchai can be added to the list of CEOs that suck?

Been on that list since he became a CEO

Some content lends itself well to written format. Lots of content does not.

PeerTube is just software. It’s a decentralized network. It doesn’t have to scale to that size. You can have a million servers handling the storage and streaming in a more efficient method and democratize the bandwidth.

User experience can be improved pretty easily.

The important parts are already there.

I don’t see anything regarding encryption

No one wants to talk about PeerTube?

Maybe not. That’s my best guess as to why they wouldn’t advertise it on the homepage.

Hurting /= killing

I didn’t say anything about “killing”.

It’s always been legal to download, but not upload.
