       @a This +100 for video. IMO the processing scale problem must be solved for video to reach scale in a rapidly growing fediverse. Peertube (brilliantly) addresses the distribution scale problem but not the processing. Users expect videos to upload and post immediately, but even a beefy Peertube server simply can’t transcode video uploads from hundreds of concurrent users into multiple HLS/DASH renditions in anything close to realtime (if it doesn't crash outright).

       @grammargirl I've used Backblaze for almost 20 years and it's been great. Thankfully I've never had a disk failure but have a relative who did (almost a terabyte of photos & videos) and they said it was really easy, Backblaze mailed them a USB drive and detailed instructions.I will never understand why Apple hasn't added a Time Machine service to iCloud, seems like a no-brainer. 🤷‍♂️
