@treuss@ZDF auch wenn ich kein so großer #PeerTube Fan bin, würde sich das natürlich für einen öffentlich rechtlichen (und auch alle anderen) Fernsehsender anbieten. Dann bleiben die Inhalte unter der eigenen Kontrolle und Google via Youtube wird nicht noch reicher.
My most awaited project of the year, the TROM II documentary, is now finally close to its release! 😃 So I just want to share a few thoughts as to why its so interesting for me:
👉 The entire #documentary, around 5 hours long and divided into 4 parts, is made by a single person (@tio), using only #FOSS software like @kdenlive for editing, and on a #linux distro (tromjaro.com) as the main OS. This in itself is a very impressive feat! And also a shout-out to the awesome #FreeSoftware / #OpenSource community for how much it has grown. I heard this documentary is the biggest project ever made on #kdenlive so far, and making such a big documentary by a single person is no joke - took years of hard work to complete.
👉 Following a #FediFirst approach, it will be released on #fediverse platforms like @peertube first! Free for all to watch without any ads or data collection. I don't know if this will be uploaded to proprietary platforms like #YouTube, tho I'm sure #Peertube will always have top priority 😉
👉 Unlike the first TROM documentary which was released a decade ago, this one features interviews with people like @bigworldsmallsasha, @aaron, @sober_pirate, @georgi and Tio himself. They talk about their personal lives, how they grew up in this world and such, their stories are supposed to give us a larger perspective on how our current society works. I can't tell you much more until I get to watch the documentary and see how all of this falls into place 🙂
👉 No stock footage has been used in the documentary! If making a 5 hour documentary doesn't sound hard enough for you then this will do it, lol 😄 So for example if it shows some scientists looking at data in one scene, then its actual scientists looking at actual data that they work on, not some stock footage of actors pointing at screens and faking stuff. Finding real world footage like this is a time consuming task as it'd require going thorugh a lot of documentaries, videos, etc looking for the right clip you need.
👉 If you've ever read any of the TROM e-books or seen their videos before then you'll know how it goes - looking at the world from a scientific perspective, encouraging people to be curious about the world we live in and the universe that surrounds us, and perhaps most important of all, to cut through all of the social constructs we've been accustomed to and see the world for what it really is, because only if we truly understand our world can we solve the many problems that are plaguing our planet right now. To get a little taste of what TROM is about you can try watching these short videos they've released in the past:
#peertube is full of weird, fun and quirky content. With no ads. You need to dig around a bit to find the cool stuff, but that's really worth it, IMHO. Give it a try! Get lost in geeky/weird content that brings back the real internet - the internet of people! #fediverse Here's one example. https://vid.wildeboer.net/w/jqC96Yxu3CnAEx6LqT4vTo
@rabble it had better #UX and the @Gargron running it was an effective communicator at #KISS and built it out as a #4opens project alongside a healthy (white) lie about security and privacy. The rest of the projects lacked these things - Pleroma the obverse compaine was ripped apart by the #geekproblem then embraced by the right-wing. #Peertube was stuck in a good but very closed development for years. #Pixelfed is a little brother project to mastodon.
26e richting #Portugal voor #eTwinning. Wil hier graag live streamen maar alle #peertube instances geven niet thuis op gemaakte account. Zal dus dan maar #youtube worden. Of iemand zonder maken eigen server een idee. En welke #edutooters gaan mij volgen
@aral@Gargron I don't understand. Is it not the screenshot of the official app?
Remember, picking a server is a big barrier for new users, so unless #mastodon has a "choose server wizard" a la #peertube, I don't know how would one make "pick my own server" a UX default.
Hier im Podcasts ab ca. Min. 15 werden auch noch mal von @Lioh einige Hintergründe zum Fediverse berichtet, an dem sie auch selbst aktiv mitentwickelt hat (auch sehr aufschlussreich in Bezug auf die aktuellen Zentralisierungs-Tendenzen im Fediverse)
Für alle Themen und Projekte gilt aber: gnulinux.ch ist ein Community-Projekt, an dem alle eingeladen und aufgerufen sind, mitzuwirken und selbst zu schreiben: gnulinux.ch/mitschreiben
Je mehr Perspektiven hier eingebracht werden, desto besser! @Kaiteki@caos
One of the things I love about the Fediverse is that it is growing in about 8 different directions and they all cohere.
From #Fedidb look at the top software undergirding the Fedi:
#Pixelfed, #WordPress, #Microblog#Peertube are all playing substantial roles...but are not "forks' of Mastodon but are entirely different apps, which benefit from Mastodon, and give value back to it. And are one Fediverse.
Does the Nostr community seem like they even care about value splits? The value splits seem so crucial to moving forward with any v4v model that isn't a simple paid like of a comment, and it's hard for me to get behind something that doesn't support value splits after being convinced of how valuable they are.
#PeerTube with the lightning plug-in has this capability. Channel owners can configure splits for their channel, and viewers on PeerTube with a WebLN capable browsers can stream Sats or send boostagrams.
When viewing PeerTube videos on a Mastodon timeline, if WebLN is detected and a split is configured, there will be a lightning icon you can click to send a boostagram from the timeline.
👋 Hello #fediverse! I'm going into a meeting at 4ET to talk about our newsroom's social media options.
If you think our station and other #NPR stations should have a Mastodon server or a broader presence in the #fediverse, pls boost this post. If you have thoughts, please reply, I want to hear them!
When I first found out PeerTube was using WebTorrent, I was excited by the possibility that it could play videos from a normal BitTorrent swarm. That way, video creators could store their videos on a few home computers instead of expensive S3 "cloud" storage. Turned out there were some difficulties in getting BT clients to add enough support for WebTorrent to make that work. I haven't checked for any progress on that for a while.
How we ran a 300+ attendee conference online using an open source stack including tech like #Jitsi, #PeerTube, and #Matrix / #Element - and attendees had a great experience!
I just learned about Misskey, which is apparently ALSO a microblogging service that is part of the #Fediverse. Any tech-history-aware folks among my followers feel like taking a stab at explaining how the Fediverse came to be home to TWO microblogging services? Do they tend to be distributed across different parts of the world? Or get used to talk about different kinds of things? Are there people with both Mastodon and Misskey accounts?
@IPEdmonton ...I find people first and foremost create multiple accounts based on the type of content they want to share, so if the software plays a factor it is based on that content, like photographers who set up an account on a #pixelfed server or vloggers with #peertube otherwise for microblogging it tends to be the "theme", the culture of local users or the geographic location over the software.
#Fedilab 3.21.0 now allows you to discover #Peertube with your Mastodon / Friendica / Pleroma accounts.
You have a new entry in your main menu (My App > Peertube).
This is not yet perfect but thanks to your valuable feedback, we are sure to bring improvements very soon.
I'm pretty sure that the #Fediverse is one of the first social networks I've been on that didn't ever ask me to betray any of the people in my address book.
