       comon, Luke, put some html5 animations on your menubar, you boomer.  The icons are too small to even see clearly on my ultrawide monitor.  The text isn't even centered on the menu items.  Also if you were a true boomer you'd use animated torch gifs https://gifcities.org/?q=torch

       @luke I dropped your video RSS feed into my torrent client and set it to auto-download and seed your videos. I know you said you have unlimited bandwith now, but few videos have over 1.0 share ratio, so I guess it's helping some. Hopefully this decentralisation thing takes off cause YouTube is so trash.

       we can only get people to do it if we don't see Peertube as the unpopular Youtube alternative that it is, but more like Youtube would be the weird Peertube alternative. This is just like Stallman, who doesn't see free software as some "special kind of software". Instead he communicates proprietary software as the weird thing and free software as the sane thing.

       Bitchute is still important since regular people will get exposed to much more redpilled content on a centralized free speech video hosting platform. The site plays an important role in the information/culture wars.

       Honestly I'm impressed by how functional peertube is from the user perspective. Easily beats any alternate video site there is. Heck this even beats youtube.I'm kind of tempted to set up a peertube instance for my brother and I. Just import new anime from subbers' RSS feeds automatically and bam, private crunchyroll.

       I'm glad the server's working well. I've been watching here instead of YouTube since you moved your PeerTube instance and the videos play instantly on first world internet.

       @unazoomerThere are bunch of fun websites out there still but they are just difficult to find. What we really need is a search engine that tries to build heuristics to filter out all the garbage sites. The most obvious thing would of course to be to drop all sites with excessive or external javascript. Next maybe do some kind of machine learning with the ratios of text, external links, internal links, amount of tags used etc. Then give user knobs to block things like sites behind cloudflare etc.Geohot had a  stream recently where he was also brainstorming about better search engines but I think he was overthinking it a bit.

       @unazoomer @luke Wow, that's pretty great. Will definitely try using it in the future. Though this seems to depend on page submissions which is fine for getting learning data for the algorithm. But if it doesn't do any crawling by itself a lot of nice little pages will never be indexed. I do like the requirements for the submitted pages though. If they were to share the list of known-good sites by their metrics maybe someone else could build a crawler to look for similar ones. Unlike crawlers that crawl the whole web I think a reasonable judgement could be done just by the index page for each website.

       @ttkk That is true, but I didn't want to use one of those whois web clients, as they are not fine for me (won't provide more explanation). But you are right, and I didn't know there were command line whois clients. Thank you. However, giving lukesmith.xyz to this client doesn't return me frantech.ca. I guess I'm doing something wrong.

       So here's a question: the big thing that a lot of these platforms provide is not really about the content hosting, but rather the network effect that everyone's on them (in fact, aggregators like Reddit mostly just link out to content anyway) so you can then find/discover things that interest you all in one place, and follow/subscribe to different channels/subs/people that way. In a decentralized world of independent blogs/channels, RSS used to work great for that but now that seems like old technology where even the browsers are removing it as core functionality: there is no built-in handling of RSS feeds in Firefox anymore. What's your vision of the federated future like in this regard?

       @ttkk These centralized platforms make regular people watch videos they wouldn't see if they only add rss links of what interests them. While Youtube pushes bluepilled brainwashing, Bitchute has the potential for causing redpilling. And it is quite steadily growing, Bitchute is already in the top 1000 alexa ranking in the US, UK and Germany. https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/bitchute.com

       @avit Im obviously not Mr. Smith, but I wanted to answer a bit. The original internet was designed with decentralization in mind, but it was near impossible to accomplish. What ended up being built was a system centralized around the people that funded it (first, science and education, second, hobbyists, and third, corporations). Since average people are lazy they want one source for everything and won't be bothered with managing multiple resources. The centralized agencies were more then happy to horde these users and consolidate the system. What we need (my opinion) is a system that allows for that centralization with the user material decentralized. An example might be going to facebook and viewing a list of content, but that content is linked to a person's server or in the least controlled and owned by the individual. I think peertube sort of does this. Not sure how content is distributed.I've tried to accomplish something similar for general writing, but it would work well for website as well. What I'd like to do or see is a system that allows linking to other content. For example, I write a 100 page book (or 100 page website) and I link each of my pages together in the proper order. Someone comes along an reads up to page 25, but they haven't liked the content since page 20. Well, they write content and link it to my page 20. So now any new readers that come along will be asked, when they get to my page 20, would you like to continue with JC's page 21 or the other user's page.The system wouldn't even be hard to make its just not something that can profit in the ways most businesses want, so it makes it hard to produce. Plus, I suck at programming.

       @avit I've grown to hate that artificial network effect. The algorithms on those sites that navigate their networks for you exist to keep you consuming drivel or otherwise manipulate you. A more neutral, distributed network effect can happen through recommendations. A simple "recommended content" page on your website that points visitors elsewhere is an example of that. Some sites can primarily function to aggregate links even. Just don't let them turn in to another reddit.

       @jimsy_pickles @ttkk Some people say this and I'm never sure where they're coming from. Bitchute works great. The only big thing that needs work is their search functionality, though I don't use that much anyway. That and the commenting system, of which they're making their own to replace disqus as we speak.

       @luke there's a problem here. Currently people who use peertube rely on their fame on YouTube to bring people to their website. Once everyone but cnn is banned from YouTube there won't be an easy way to get more viewers on the peertube bandwagon.

       What do you use for statically compiling your website, is it still LB?

       @luke I can't wait for the internet reboot!  I find it so funny how the big MegaCorp guys are literally pushing users away:)  Funny how cyclic things can be.Here's another great channel to follow for anyone that's into #smalltech https://peertube.davidpeach.co.uk/video-channels/small_technology_foundation

       @inigoFirs you get the ip with `dig videos.lukesmith.xyz` and after that you do a lookup on who owns that with `whois `.

       @jimsy_pickles>These centralized platforms make regular people watch videos they wouldn't see if they only add rssThe service being centralized is not a requirement for discovery or finding new content. This is very much achievable with federated and peer-to-peer systems as well. The reason you can't discover much on Peertube yet is because there isn't much on it. If Bitchute was a Peertube instance it would have just the same potential for redpilling and discovery as it does now along with easier rehosting and better resilience to censorship.

       @kilterThe site is quite slow, very cluttered, poorly organized, search is useless, youtube-dl doesn't work on it half the time.The site also requires js for everything as does Peertube unfortunately.

       @avit @kilter PeerTube effectively does this already when federating with other ActivityPub instances. Aside from the strange tendency to log me out after apparently clicking the wrong page, it generally has most all the functionality it needs right now.Whoever designs the similarly-functioning tools around other uses or forms of data, they would do well to make sure that both user indexing - a client's ability to keep track of the identities and content of others - as well as the ability to properly categorise, organise and search all of this data, are inherent to the program.

       At this point, I'd be glad with just an archive of the last forum.

       @harambe@videos.lukesmith.xyz What hosting service would you recommend out of curiosity? I'm currently running via vultr, but I see it is going to be a bottle neck down the road as things progress.

       @LPS@fosstodon.org A lot of the Internet has become very generic which I suppose can be good from a user familiarity point of view, but it also means much of the Internet doesn't have as much personality and we all get treated to content filtered through the various large organization's lenses.

       Have you tried Peertube's livestreaming. I am very interested in that.

       Is it possible to remote subscribe to this instance? That option doesn't work for me, using my account on freespeechextremist.com.

       Is it possible to remote subscribe to this instance? The options are local account, remote account, and RSS. The remote option doesn't work for me, using my account on freespeechextremist.com It's a Pleroma instance but I'm guessing that, since it uses ActivityPub, it's treated the same as a Mastodn instance.

       Something else: You could save on costs by doing a video telling your viewers how they might help by seeding your videos, since it is a way for them to make "donations" without it costing them anything, assuming they have spare data capacity in their broadband cap. Apparently, you have a few already doing that but more would probably be better and anyway it's useful to know for those that are interested in having their own Peertube instance. Also, sometimes I've seen your videos have no seeders. Peertube isn't a torrent client itself but simply a torrent-tracker and server that serves up the file on demand. To seed a file one needs a torrent client but it has to be a webtorrent client and not a regular bittorrent client so as to be found by webtorrent trackers such as Peertube.

       OK, you say you're on an unmetered bandwidth VPS. But like anything else that sounds too good to be true, there probably is an upper limit on how much data you could transfer, but since you're just a hobbyist site with 1K or so viewers then you don't come anywhere near it. However, my remarks below would apply to a sufficiently large Peertube site equivalent to larger Youtube channels.

However, my remarks below would apply to a sufficiently large Peertube site equivalent to larger Youtube channels. What I'm saying is that those all-you-can-eat plans are much more expensive than regular, cheap VPSs. With sufficient seeding by viewers you wouldn't need the unmetered bandwidth, since a larger proportion of the downloads would be by webtorrent from other viewers.

       I can hardly believe I've watched four videos on this site raving about Peertube and not one of them describes how to install it.
