@peertube with no hesitation dropped a truth bomb today...
"The realization that led us to develop PeerTube is that no one can rival YouTube or Twitch. You would need Google’s money, Amazon servers’ farms... Above all, you would need the greed to exploit millions of creators and videomakers, groom them into formatting their content to your needs, and feed them the crumbs of the wealth you gain by farming their audience into data livestock."
@Mrfunkedude I don't like #peertube at all, its main use is to spread conspiracy theories and worse. I don't see the devs adressing this at all. Maybe stop distributing holocaust denials on your own homepage at least? @peertube
@Bindestriche@Mrfunkedude@peertube that is hardly the fault of the platform though is it? An instance can ban those sort of things but that is up to the admin and whilst you might not agree about it surely it is also free speech which is a massive part of the fediverse ie no censoring or pushing content it wants you to see
[addendum] To us it goes without saying, but it bears another toot : the instance responsible for the content on your screenshot is being moderated from our index right now.
@peertube@3dcandy@Mrfunkedude@PeerTube_Isolation does not change the fact without your software these videos whould not get distributed that easily. There isn't even a report button next to the results list. Everybody knows that friction kills activity. Your software is the backbone of every fascists social media presence. You could make tools to make it easier to spot this dirt. Where are they?
@Bindestriche@peertube@3dcandy@PeerTube_Isolation With this logic we should all stop using computers, cell phones, etc because these things are used to push fascist ideals and helps them organize. 🙄
@Mrfunkedude@peertube@3dcandy@PeerTube_Isolation biulding a video software distribution platform with the explicit purpose of being hard to censor/moderate while enhancing anonymity is not the same thing as writing an email. Peertube started development after the enshitification of social media started. Even in response to it. Not treating unwanted content as an afterthought is not a big ask. Especially since the platform does not need outrage bait etc. Like commercial platforms do
@Bindestriche@peertube@3dcandy@PeerTube_Isolation Can you show me where the "explicit purpose" of PeerTube is the be "hard to censor/moderate while enhancing anonymity" is stated on their website? I'd love to see this.
Also, when do you think PeerTube started development?
And where do you get the idea that they "treating unwanted content like an afterthought" ???
It seems you either don't understand how it works or you think your unwarranted claims justify some sort of moral outrage.
it's going to be an exciting time for PeerTube. I really hope that more people on the Fediverse start creating content for it. There's so much potential there.
@Mrfunkedude anyone else getting a Mastodon glitch for this post? Clicking on the link takes me to the blog post, but clicking on the thumbnail only takes me to the main domain, https://joinpeertube.org :peertube:
