Slightly tangential but PeerTube is never going to compete with the Big Red Play Button if people use juvenile domain names like “peertube.wtf”

utopiah@lemmy.ml on 22 Mar 15:20 next collapse

It’s federated, so one can setup whatever instance they want on whatever domain they want.

If the admin feels “.wtf” is edge, cool. If someone else believe it’s NSFW or wouldn’t help promote the cause, they can setup another instance on another domain. If the content itself is federated, they might share that link instead.

I just thought it was funny. Don’t know what’s juvenile about “wtf” though. Unless you’re an old fart.

Avatar checks out.

Yeah I know all that, but for whatever reason this dumbass domain seems to be the only one I ever see. Personally I’m all in favor of having a respectable ,canonical domain for newbies and occasional users, but this one is not going to cut it.

Then post some PeerTube videos yourself from whatever PeerTube domain you wanna see lol

meldrik@lemmy.wtf on 22 Mar 15:23 next collapse

Then use another PeerTube provider, if you don’t like the domain name.

The original video is on tilvids.com

No, what’s stopping me from using peertube and other alternatives is that half the time the video just doesn’t want to load.

Same, I wonder how the economics work out.

meldrik@lemmy.wtf on 23 Mar 11:26 collapse

It’s initially not very expensive to run, but as it grows you’ll have to pay more and more for storage.

Videos not loading could be a client issue, low bandwidth from client or server, misconfiguration on the server etc.

A reload usually fixes this, unless the server is actually down.

Do you know if it’s any particular instance this happens with?

For me the EU should make all hardware manufacturers provide open source drivers with the full range of configuration options available. This is one of the biggest hurdles to moving away from Windows.

Love Nick’s videos

As a freelancer, I would really like something to replace UpWork.

Firefox PWAs… Wish it would be true, but seems to be some custom “Taskbar Tabs” for Windows 11.
