What's a good peertube instance that federates with a lot? I tried tldvids but its got like 2 regular uploaders and i cant find most channels I search for.

[–] DirtyAnCom@discuss.online 5 points 2 hours ago

Lol, posting Piefed as an alternative to reddit to Lemmy...

Also, PeerTube is super obtuse to get an account and has almost no reach. You almost have to personally know someone who has a server or host your own. There's a reason why video hosting has gotten so corporatized: it's expensive. That said, almost "no one" used Mastodon for nearly a decade and it's finally starting to take off, so maybe it just needs another decade or two.

Loops is mid. The community is pretty inactive, and the iOS build is quite buggy and lacking.

It only released onto the AppStore 3 days ago. I’d argue they deserve some time to get it right.

Wtf is piefed? I mean, I'm searching for it now, I've just never heard of it.

It's like Lemmy, but it can interact with Mastodon and has some other features that Lemmy lacks. It's pretty cool, only reason I don't use more often it is I'm happy on my instance otherwise I would swap in an instant.

I've never used it but apparently people like it, but it's got some pretty interesting development choices, I'll just leave it like that.

Another Reddit-like software that reads the Fediverse like Mbin. I'm speaking to you from Piefed.

Maybe I am just noob at using it. But calling pixelfed a substitution to instagram, is maybe just a little reach.. Pixelfed I found buggy, slow and dead community wise? Anyone to prove me wrong?

that's peertube too

[–] spicehoarder@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 hours ago

Like a twitch alternative?

[–] thoro@lemmy.ml 34 points 12 hours ago (13 children)

It's honestly bonkers to have a community hosted on Lemmy this hostile to Lemmy as software and the developers.

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 51 minutes ago (1 children)

Is this bait? There is hardly any hostility here towards the software and the Lemmy devs want to push the world towards being an authoritarian hellscape. If anything they dont get enough shit.

[–] Grainne@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 minutes ago

The user is from .ml, it's a bad-faith post imo.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 11 hours ago

Because so many keep getting told it's by tankies and stop thinking immediately after that

Every day is a good day to switch

I am unreasonably angry about the stretched icons.
