The feddit.org server is in Austria. But that doesn’t make any difference when (some of) the admins live in Germany. They could still get their homes raided by police.

I don’t think you will easily find an option that lets you build free form html pages (even Hubzilla limits that quite a bit), but since everyone seems to just put out random recommendations, have another one: https://elgg.org/

Elgg is an oldy but goody, and they recently added ActivityPub federation via an plugin (which I have not personally tried yet).

Peertube on Lemmy was AFAIK recently fixed.

Slightly better you mean. 30% is on matrix.org and an estimated 70% runs on servers provided by EMS (this figure includes matrix.org).

And Matrix is also VC funded. They have some other income yes, but it is insufficient to fund many of their current activities. As a result enshittification is already happening.

Matrix is basically the Bluesky of chat. If you want an Fediverse equivalent have a look at XMPP/Jabber.

What a lame excuse. You can do better. Since you seem to like to put a lot of effort into getting the last word in, how about posting a nice picture of you and your waifu pillow?

I would change your waifu pillow if it is three years old already 🤷

You put surprisingly lot of effort into having the last word in an internet debate… go ahead and make passionate love to your imaginary wife then 🤡

Sure, now you are backtracking 🙄 Replying to someone suggesting a dedicated podcast platform with “it doesn’t support video” is in no way implying that in needs to support video, right? You are just gishgallopping BS here now 🤷

Spotify isn’t the only source of podcasts 🙄

And it was you that talked about requiring video.

I am saying bread doesn’t have to be Wonderbread to qualify as bread, nor is it a requirement for bread to be Wonderbread 🙄

nobody is saying it requires video

Please read the thread again. It started with someone claiming that if it doesn’t support video, it can’t be used for podcasts, which is just ridiculous 🙄 And I never claimed that a podcast can’t also have an alternative distribution method via video. You are arguing a complete strawman.

Four years later and with a really crappy small screen that I doubt anyone used for actually watching videos. Apparently battery life was atrocious too when doing so.

Indeed it is defined by it’s delivery method to an audio player. Even the term derives from the audio only iPod.

A common definition would be:

An audio programme in a compressed digital format, delivered via an RSS feed over the Internet to a subscriber and designed for playback on computers or portable digital audio players, such as the iPod.

Well, even if that was true (which it isn’t, most major podcasts are audio only), it would still not be a podcast if it requires there to be a video with it. Of course if the video is just some person speaking into a microphone with no additional vital information included in the video feed, then it can be considered an alternative form of podcast distribution.

You are arguing like as if TV and radio was the same. But they are not 🤷 I don’t need to back up common definitions of words, you know?

If you need to pay attention to what is on the screen, it is you know, a video and not a podcast. But I feel we are not getting anywhere here and you are just being contrarian for some silly reason 🤷

It doesn’t fit the definition of a podcast then.

Sure, some podcasters also upload their podcasts on video sites, but if the video is a vital part of it and you can’t just listen to it, then it doesn’t qualify as a podcast.

That’s not a podcast then 🙄

Since when do podcasts have video?

Bluesky is literally funded by a venture capital firm called “Blockchain Capital” and you wonder about previous jobs of the CEO? 🙄
