- Comment on Google admits it's making YouTube worse for ad block users 11 months ago:
I feel like people mistake YouTube for a video hosting solution,
But that’s not the point.
- YouTube a huge archive of content that accumulated over the past 17 years.
- YouTube is a content suggestion machine. Discoverability is a key aspect.
- YouTube sets an incentive by allowing people to monetize their content.
- …
So, if the only thing you’re looking for is a video hosting solution, then, yes, PeerTube might be an alternative. In the same way uploading videos to your own webspace would be, and Vimeo also still exists.
But for all the other stuff, YT is, unfortunately, unmatched, and probably will be for a while …
- Comment on Is there any way to reverse degrowth of the niche communities on Lemmy? 1 year ago:
Hmm I get your point, but on the other hand, I suppose nowadays many people are just used to look for a niche community … and finding it. So it’s not a huge surprise if the first reaction is disappointment when you don’t find anything like it or just an empty community.
- Comment on Is there any way to reverse degrowth of the niche communities on Lemmy? 1 year ago:
Well, but that basically means I’d have to rely on different platforms if I want to post and discuss, say, niche music that’d just be buried immediately in the usual “popular” music communities (that often have a slightly rockist slant).
Even on reddit, the ambient music or IDM communities are fairly small.
- Comment on NAC makes you insensitive to alcohol 1 year ago:
As some people have pointed out, it protects the liver, but from personal experience, I can’t confirm the “not getting drunk” part … so I’d be really cautious about blanket statements as the one in the title of this post.

The idea is to have an 8-channel power amplifier in one box …
I still have to source the right trafo, but one large one would be both lighter and cheaper (new) than, say 4 small ones. An argument to use multiple would potentially be that peaks on individual channels might have less impact on the other channels. Still working on it …

Well, it says to use a toroidal transformer between 12V to 32V output, and looking at pictures of other people who bought it, it seems to work on AC directly, so I have high confidence that that’s what it is.

Hmm they are rated for 12V to 32V, and the seller recommends using a toroidal transformer to achieve the symmetric power it needs.
