Where do I start for this rabbit hole? That sounds mind blowingly cool.

Discovery should not be a function of the Fediverse itself. It should be a tool, app, or otherwise layer on top of a baseline. Discovery is an opinionated service offering—if it’s baked in, it’s not a good thing IMO.

Joined the TestFlight!

Jellyfin and self host!

Mullvad is the GOAT. There is no reason to use anything else.

It should have. This is why I joined, and in fact there’s no technology reason why it shouldn’t have. The CEO et al simply did not understand that the content creator was their customer and viewed them, somehow, with disdain—despite being anti IP anarchist types, they were oxymoronic when it came to understanding who they needed to serve.

I think the best way for it to live on is as a software fork / side chain to BTC/BCH. Or you could refactor it completely against Celestia. Ethereum it wouldn’t work because the data shards demand too much and would cause L1 fee spikes.

I worked for LBRY before Odysee spin off. Worst culture from the C-Suite you could ever imagine. Autistic sociopathy is the only way to describe it.

Jellyfin is so much better man, once setup. It’s basically the dream.

This looks so sick.

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

You should redo your org from scratch and let all the default plugins do the work. Mine looks great and I never changed anything, just followed the recommended file org pattern for Movies and TV Shows.

There is 0 chance he reviewed this edit. Thats the only reason this is probably out. He’s doing volume and trusting his people—and this is also probably the “best” cut (which tells you how bad it really is in real-time)—because as bad as he is, there’s just no way he knowingly released a cut like that with an actual peer like Jeff Ross.

Now that it’s been seen, he will obviously defend it because it’s weak to pull it. But Bill isn’t so out of touch that he’d proactively release material that makes him look like Ross is embarrassed to be there.

The Jeff Ross episode, holy cow that’s bad. I’ve never seen his personal shows. He’s like the world’s strangest narcissist.

I did Jellyfin right when I got into this as soon as I saw Plex require an external account.

Meta comment, but I often click politics or other links from the local feed, and like 90% of articles are paywalled. These communities are useless with the volume of paywalled material.

This is elite self-hosting, lol. I want more of this content.

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.

Nice!
