Mastodon is still confusing to me. But that’s probably because I’ve never been on Twitter, FB, Insta, etc.

And because it really just sucks.

The way Twitter works can be traced back to the very early days of the internet and it was just never updated because…reasons.
As for Mastodon…I can’t explain that one.

Somewhat off-topic: you are now using the iGPU of the 5600g to do video transcoding instead of the nvidia one?
meldrik@lemmy.wtf 1 month ago
I doing software transcoding with the 5600G. I have not been able to get VAAPI to work yet.
I posted this issue on the Github page for the plugin that should enable VAAPI transcoding: github.com/TheoLeCalvar/…/3
The transcoding starts just fine, but fails at around 90% done and throw the error message I posted in the issue.

Wait… AntennaPod can play video podcasts hosted on PeerTube!? I’ve just subscribed to the podcast from AntennaPod and it just works. This is awesome.

I just felt like too many people were linux-nerds and tried to make everyone else feel stupid for not understanding the fediverse concept.
I get it now, but I put off jumping in for a while because a lot of people here were so unwelcoming to newbies.

…so why does mastodon discourage you from making DMs ( direct messages? )

Because they’re not exactly private

Happy to see that the Peertube embed is working now (Lemmy 0.19.9)

It has been working for me since 0.19.8.
