now you are backtracking
I am not backtracking. You are lying and gaslighting.
Replying to someone suggesting a dedicated podcast platform with “it doesn’t support video” is in no way implying that in needs to support video, right?
…yes? That’s exactly right. Especially in the context of someone asking specifically “why would I use this particular platform?”
Goodbye.

It started with someone claiming that if it doesn’t support video, it can’t be used for podcasts, which is just ridiculous
Nope, you’re just making shit up again.
And I never claimed that a podcast can’t also have an alternative distribution method via video
There is no alternative distribution method. It’s the same distribution method (RSS).
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 7 hours ago:
Spotify has a large enough market share to be considered an authority on what’s popular. If there’s another platform you’d like to share that contradicts my assessment, feel free to share it, but like everything else you’ve said, I assume your response will be something along the lines of “I don’t need to back up my nonsense because everyone knows it already!!!”.
And it was you that talked about requiring video.
I sure didn’t. You literally just made that up.
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 7 hours ago:
most major podcasts are audio only
Look again. 8 of the top 10 podcasts right now all have video.
it would still not be a podcast if it requires there to be a video with it
None of them “require” video.

That’s not at all what you’re saying. We’re done here.
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 9 hours ago:
Content is perfectly discoverable without them
It’s really not. Spotify and YT together comprise about 70% of the market.

You do when you’re trying to say that Wonderbread is not bread because you don’t like it.
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 20 hours ago:
If you actually read the OP, PeerTube podcasts are ALSO distributed via RSS.
- Comment on How OnlyFans Piracy Is Ruining the Internet for Everyone | Innocent sites are being delisted from Google because of copyright takedown requests against rampant OnlyFans piracy. 20 hours ago:
I don’t understand why you just keep repeating yourself
These companies are supposed to have a duty to verify their copyright claim is valid before sending a takedown
Again, no they don’t. They are legally required to take it down by the DMCA until it’s disproven.
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 20 hours ago:
I’m being contrarian? What does that make you?
You just keep saying the same nonsense over and over and refusing to back it up in any way.

Because the companies have no say in the matter.
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 1 day ago:
It doesn’t fit the definition of a podcast then.
Again I ask, how does it not?
you can’t just listen to it, then it doesn’t qualify as a podcast.
You can.

How is it not?
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 1 day ago:
Since shortly after their inception.

The reactions are legal compliance
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 1 day ago:
It adds video. If you don’t care about video, and you already have a system that works, it’s probably not for you.
If potentially a new person wanted somewhere to host a podcast, they could do that using PeerTube. Along with all the other video services it offers.
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 1 day ago:
It doesn’t support video

More like “How DMCA is ruining the internet” considering these companies are just complying with the law.
- Comment on How To Use PeerTube for Podcasting 1 day ago:
Unfortunately if you want to run a video podcast you need to also upload to YouTube and Spotify manually. Because fuck RSS I guess.
- Comment on Alternatives to Twitch and YouTube for livestreaming gaming? 2 days ago:
PeerTube is unfortunately not terribly well configured for Livestreaming. There is a tremendous lag.
- Comment on AI was a common theme at Gamescom 2025, and while some indie teams say it's invaluable, it remains an ethical nightmare 3 days ago:
Probably invaluable if you’re intent on pumping out slop.
Video games are an art. If you outsource your art to shitty robots…what service is it that you’re providing? What are you doing that I can’t do my fucking self.

It’s not always easy to just pick up and leave somewhere. Especially somewhere as big as Texas.

If you’re comparing them to those brands then you’re obviously just intentionally cherry picking vehicles that are not comparable and you know it.

How long is going to take these corporate morons to realize they’re being duped? Like, you could have tested this with a focus and group and realized it wasn’t going to work in 5 minutes and saved yourself the trouble…
- Comment on Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe as Chinese EV rival BYD's triple 4 days ago:
Yes. They are. Significantly.
- Comment on Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe as Chinese EV rival BYD's triple 5 days ago:
Yes, they’re cheap because the competition is higher end vehicles.
No they’re not. They’re cheap because they’re subsidized.
- Comment on Vivaldi takes a stand: keep browsing human 5 days ago:
tl;dr they’re not using AI for obvious reasons
We will not use an LLM to add a chatbot, a summarization solution or a suggestion engine to fill up forms for you, until more rigorous ways to do those things are available.
Vivaldi is the haven for people who still want to explore. We will continue building a browser for curious minds, power users, researchers, and anyone who values autonomy. If AI contributes to that goal without stealing intellectual property, compromising privacy or the open web, we will use it. If it turns people into passive consumers, we will not.
- Comment on Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe as Chinese EV rival BYD's triple 5 days ago:
Yes, we have established that the EU has tariffs. What we’ve not established is that BYD isn’t significantly less expensive than other brands in the EU.
BYDs seem cheap because they make budget EVs. Mercedes, Audi, etc, do not.
Mercedes, Audi, etc. are established several decade old prestigious brands that don’t need rock bottom prices to gain market share.
BYDs don’t “seem” cheap. They are cheap.
- Comment on Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe as Chinese EV rival BYD's triple 5 days ago:
Doesn’t the EU balance it out with tariffs?
No.
Those cheap BYDs ain’t all that cheap here
Yes they are.
Now if EU increased subsidies for domestic EV production, domestic solar panel production, etc… We could really have something great.
Truth there.
- Comment on Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe as Chinese EV rival BYD's triple 5 days ago:
Sure, it’s great for everyone, right up until it’s not anymore because they’ve erased the competition and then jacked up the prices to the point that common people can’t afford them, and further driven down workers’ wages in the process.
Is no one else familiar with the concept of Predatory Pricing?
