But we have out fair share of Mao and Stalin lovers and Xi loveboys. It’s very simmilar. But I guess they are mostly contained to one or two instances.
Federation is implemented by copying the content from other servers to your database and file system, so if your users subscribe to something from a different server it will be copied to your server.
But it will be only served to your users, not to the public. Only the communities hosted on your instance will be served to the public.
Oh wow so they had 1.5 milion subscribers on Twitter but they have half a milion on Mastodon unnerv.jp/ I wasn’t aware that Mastodon is that popular in Japan.
I’m subscribed to 94 channels on PeerTube and get barely one new video to watch every 2 days. This is both a problem that the people just don’t post anything but also that for some reason new videos just don’t show up even if I subscribe to them, that especially happens with TILvids channels for some reason.
Also here is the very short list of PeerTube instances I found which are not about conspiracy theories or nazi shit:
My assumption is that the default boot device was wrong and they needed to go to the bios to switch it but would never save the correct order so they had to do it every time.
I think you’re totally right. The big difference is that while for a lemmy instance to show you other instances content under ‘All’ only one other user from your instance needs to subscribe to it and you will be exposed to it. On PeerTube if another user subscribes you will never know about that instance because the server admin needs to manually federate with that instance.
But because there is no good differentiation between ‘All’ and ‘Local’ many admins - including me - just don’t federate with other instances automatically. What made it worse - I’m not sure if it got better over time - was that if you automatically federated then there would be naked people without NSFW at the top of every discovery, there would be antivax, nazis, all the fringe groups which weren’t allowed on YouTube anymore. That would make it impossible to find the local videos and your instance would look like it’s run by nazis and would offer bad quality porn.
Instead of Syncthing you can also use some other file sync if you have it set up already like iCloud, Nextcloud, Dropbox, but Syncthing I find is the easiest set up and forget.
3 years ago I visited Hebron and talked to some of the Palestinians, asked them questions, etc. It became a very interesting episode of my podcast jeena.net/pods/21
I also went out to a families home which has been bulldozed away by the Israeli military a couple of times and they built it back up.
Here is a picture of some children I met in Hebron, they were learning English on the rooftop I stayed.
