What I’m saying is that it doesn’t matter where the information is. If it’s absolutely crucial information, archive it, but if it disappears from Reddit or wherever, it’s not like someone else will be incapable of asking again, here or elsewhere.

Eh, if the information already exists on the web somewhere, why reiterate it? Seems excessive to insist on asking on the Fediverse unless that information can’t be found on a search engine or through AI.

I personally see Peertube as something that’d be better as a small-scale, reasonably low-key way of storing and sharing videos if you’re not interested in monetization or views. For example, documentation for a passion project.

For everything else, a different form of decentralization makes more sense, such as Odysee (though we’ll see how the Arweave migration goes).

I respect your choice to do that (kinda sick of arguments in general) but honestly, that’s part of the problem. Seems not too many people are willing to have civil discussions these days, it’s all so polarized. Have a good one.

Sure, but Odysee is an American platform. And ultimately, the only reason your viewers would blame you for others on a platform is because we’ve infantalized the internet over the past decade or so. Used to be that netizens knew that trolls and bullies exist online and wouldn’t blame individual platforms for it.

Yep, this is pretty much what I was expecting to hear. You know you can block channels/accounts you don’t like, no? I don’t believe in censorship of legal speech. As long as no violence is being threatened, as long as drugs aren’t being sold and as long as children are not being harmed, it falls under the first amendment. If I don’t like what someone says, I just block them because that’s what the internet was always about: free expression, even of ideals we don’t like or agree with.

I agree with you on Peertube. I’d love to see it grow but I just don’t see it doing so until things change significantly.

Also, I don’t believe in censorship of legal speech protected under the US constitution so the moderation issue doesn’t bother me. I just block channels and accounts I don’t like.

I do, but the desktop version is still barebones compared to FreeTube or the Odysee webpage. It’s great on mobile, though!

And as for Peertube, I guess part of the problem is that it doesn’t feel as connected as other Fediverse services seem to feel. Not sure why, it just feels really disjointed to me.

I don’t know if I need to ask, but what’s wrong with Odysee?

I just can’t get into using Peertube. I love the idea, but in my experience, it just doesn’t work the way it should. Slow, low video quality, hard to get the federation working properly, and most importantly, a general lack of content creators I care to follow.

I stick with Odysee for this, and several other reasons.

Mastodon and Pixelfed. Mastodon is my main (Retro Gaiden) but I’m experimenting with the Fediverse to see what works for me and what doesn’t.
