I throw my videos onto Peertube. And then post onto !peertube@lemmy.world or !videos@lemmy.world and call it a day. Its as easy as pressing the upload button and adding a title half the time. Easier than youtube by leaps and bounds.
Piefed makes it really easy to crosspost from peertube to different communities.
As far as stuff to watch, I like to see custom builds, things people are working on, and podcasts like fireside fedi. More of that :)
bodycam footage is the best content but I want to see it from other countries as well
I would love to see a stream of someone starting from a pc without an OS then installing Linux on it, then customizing it to look really good.
The closest thing I can think of is a livestream from Veronica Explains that does something similar, but not quite what I'm looking for.
Possibly off topic, but one thing I'd like to see is people upgrading the bad special effects of old movies.
"Flash Gordon" has an incredible score from Queen, hilarious dialog, and cheesy effects.
"The White Buffalo" is a great Western about Wild Bill Hickock and Crazy Horse. The actual monster looks like it was made out of cardboard
I saw a video comparing Harry Potter and The Sorecer's Stone with Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone. For those who might not be aware, the book had a different title in the US vs the UK and so four scenes in the film were shot twice to accommodate the different title. One would expect that to throw the timing off by like half a second, but the two cuts of the film line up perfectly. In the side by side comparison, it is noticeable that Harry turns his head more in one than the other.
Here’s a random idea: parody ASMR videos.
Focus exclusively on very loud sounds like a wood chipper, angle grinder, chainsaw, jackhammer, shooting range, etc.
Chris Boden/physicsduck has a rather unusual collection of "ambient" videos of old machinery running, various hydro dam sneak peeks etc.
Not the same but maybe similar?
They exist, they are just labled "fail videos"
I know of people that would appreciate gun range ASMR videos. You'll want to tone down the audio from a sharp crack to more of a buzzing crackle, but adding in the nose of people shuffling around and messing with their guns and you might actually have a hit.
Generally, think about uploading to PeerTube instead of YouTube. Or at least do both.
I barely managed to work out How To Do Lemmy.
I'm perfectly comfortably accepting that I'm an idiot, but I really do think that the fedi onboarding issue is still completely unaddressed
Once you choose an instance it's very close to the same amount of work / understanding, isn't it? So... just choose the default instance.
Not unaddressed, but certainly unresolved. There is no defined end state, so it must always improve.
That's fair, hyperbolic word choice on my part due to frustration
Being an idiot and technologically impaired are two different things!
Sounds like a fun channel, buy would suffer from dcma abuse because of copyright and corporations not knowing what fair use is.
corporations not knowing what fair use is
pretending to not know. They're fully capable of understanding when it helps them make money.
Yea, that's fair.
I'm wondering how the hell channels like CinemaSins gets away with it. One would think that channel would obviously get taken down with the amount of movie clips that he shows. I know he talks over them and thus may be fair game but, that's still a lot.
My head cannon is they got big before Google made deals with rights-holders and now that CinemaSins is part of Fandom they license the videos as part of advertising.
