If there was a non-discord/FB/X way to vote I totally would... :/

@juergen_hubert

Livestreaming absolutely exists. Chat isn't built in to Peertube, and sounds like it won't be, however Peertube does have plugins and there are a couple of quite featureful chat plugins that can be installed to run alongside livestreams.

I'd suggest checking out some of @vencabot@tube.vencabot.com 's livestreams (announced on masto at @vencabot@mastodon.online ). Fun, a super nice guy and a good platform to give chats+livestreaming a look.

#Peertube #Livestream #Chat #Vencabot

@juergen_hubert

Well, here's a list of instances that support livestreaming:
https://joinpeertube.org/instances?profile=video-maker&nsfw=blur&quota=5000000000&isStreamer=yes

You'd need to check if they have the chat plugin, but this should be visible by looking at any streams.

It would be great if @peertube would add which plugins were available to listings on their instance directory...

@matrix is a FOSS, decentralized, privacy focused project.

Any chance of getting the videos mirrored somewhere that matches, like #Peertube?

I suggest Conf.tube unless you want to run your own instance.

@evan First time I've answered "strong" anything on a poll in quite a while.

I'll leave you to guess strong "what"? 😜

@thenewoil

A non profit made up largely of for profit organizations... 🤔

@evan

Sadly it wouldn't let me cast a vote with none of them ticked, skewing the results.

@SeaFury

Many people (including myself) use Peertube! That specific instance may just not be too active with their admin. I can recommend tube.tchncs.de as a general instance with instant signup if you're still looking.

Ok, so this is very early stage but cool:

#Verso is a project to build a full "#FOSS forever" web browser based on #Rust and #Servo rather than #Chromium/#Gecko. Even the interface is rendered with Servo.

https://github.com/versotile-org/verso

Currently there's 23 contributors and a non profit forming to oversee it. There are also nightly releases for testing (remember the "very early stage" bit though!).

Here's their initial launch video (tech starts about 1/2 way through):

@BeAware

I get that listening to the same song can be comforting, familiar and useful to certain nuerospicy people. How is the same thing on repeat free dopamine though? Isn't dopamine released by novelty and anticipation?

@BeAware 5:15am bedtime for me last night. Ugh.

@BeAware

Delayed circadian rhythms are REAL.

No idea what I'm looking at here, other than a Fedora log in screen...

@aral
This is true, although to be fair, most ideological groups seem to once they get a certain level of power and influence.

@tchambers

I understand you don't like Element, but have you tried... ElementX? Apparently they reworked the interface quite a bit to try and improve things over Element.

It's still somewhat experimental, but it sounds like they're getting closer and closer to recommending it over standard Element for new users.

#Element #ElementX #Matrix

@evan Dang! That is a mighty lookin' bowl o' hummus!

@patrickcmiller

The title of this implies a sort of breathless "How could misinformation POSSIBLY have gotten through silicon valley's impenetrable fortress of Truth algorithms?!?!" when anyone can see that Google's results are utterly flooded with garbage GenAI. Nor do they care, if it gets clicks. Why anyone is shocked that some of it comes from the biggest purveyor of misinfo is beyond me. I'm more shocked when any real content gets through.

No #AltText equals no boosting love. Simple as that.
