- Comment on Atproto is getting an ietf working group 7 hours ago:
ActivityPub, aka the Fediverse, aka the open social web, aka what powers Piefed, is created, built by and built into the web, run by the W3C.
So while I agree that DRM sucks being built into the web, I disagree W3C is controlled by GAFAM. With DRM the W3C’s point was that everyone is doing it anyway at least we can have a standard way to doing it, making it easier for ends users to not have to jump through some new hoop and guaranteeing even that on alternative browsers, software or hardware aren’t excluded.
Big Tech do plenty of awful things we can give them direct credit for. W3C isn’t really one of them.

Another one bites the dust!
- Comment on 6 days ago:
I’ve caught a few as well.
If you remember the names, please let me know.
Definitely not interested in that and I’ve already removed some from the index.
- Comment on 6 days ago:
Awesome! Which server is yours? We all need to get together as Peertube Adkins and figure out more things we can do to help the ecosystem! :-)
- Comment on 6 days ago:
Awesome! Let me know if there’s any quality servers you think I should be pulling in. What’s your server?
Also please don’t hesitate to let me know if you find any unsavory things. While I can remove it from the index, you’d have to manually remove it from your server.

Adding to my list! :-) won’t get pushed today, but hopefully I can work on it tomorrow.

Hit me up if you have any issues. Also please let me know if you find ant NSFW, hate, illegal, misinformation, etc content.

Yup that’s the one! The default one Peertube basically says anyone can join that. I’m paying attention and doing the moderation for the PTIndex so if anyone has issues with it, let me know! :)

For those that don’t know Alt.Store is an alternative App Store. The EU is forcing Apple and Google to allow alternate stores. These got some funds, like a lot, to build an open store. Alt Store is it. I’m going to be talking with them on Fireside Fedi next week if anyone wants to learn more! https://firesidefedi.live or https://tubefree.org/@firesidefedi or !firesidefedi@tubefree.org
They’ve build Fediverse INTO their App Store, so ANYONE running the app store will be connected to the Fediverse.
Others have done this as well. Basically a trojan horse of freedom and openness being added to all kinds of projects atm. :D

Oh they’re finally admitting it? Ok, so we’re at least seeing progress that it is in fact a bubble. So we’re along the bubble highway. How much longer before the rich get tired of throwing that money away?

Hey but that made up currency I worked for by burning electricity, I mean MINING it.

What? You mean digital art that infinitely reproducible, can’t actually be owned, WASN’T the next big thing? Oh jeez. I hope the metaverse succeeds and if not then AI surely will RIGHT?!?!
- Comment on YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable - Dexerto 1 week ago:
I’m creating content and YouTube pulls from my Peertube. So I’ll never lose it. All of these content creators are leaning on Patreon as none of them can count on ad revenue anymore. So people are already doing it.
And Peer tube will never fully replace YouTube, but also, it doesn’t have to. Your local library, school, church, community space, doesn’t need ad revenue.
- Comment on They wanted to make Free Software illegal and have all computers approved by the government. 1 week ago:
The AI stuff has real economic implications for sure, but it can’t last. IMO anyway. I just try to stay focused on fostering the fediverse and staying away from all of that other crap. I think small local communities for social web is the real winner for us.
- Comment on YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable - Dexerto 1 week ago:
I recommend Peertube. There’s not much there yet, but myself and others are trying.
Also, did you know you can upload your video to Peertube and have YouTube pull it via RSS? That’s what I’m doing!
All of my stuff you’ll find on Peertube and I don’t have to do anything else to get it up on YouTube.
- Comment on They wanted to make Free Software illegal and have all computers approved by the government. 1 week ago:
Idk. How are they going to enforce age verification? Probably can’t. Doesn’t stop them from trying.

Cory was talking about years ago. The FSF helped prevent it, but this is the kind of meetings Microsoft is willing to have to lock down systems. I think the rest of the world is now aware of US Big Tech and hopefully will steer clear. But yeah, we almost were in deep trouble.

A member of my community made it! :) BlenderDumbass is pretty awesome like that! :)

Anything centralized can and will be used to abuse the population at the behest of the rich and powerful. The open social web is the only answer.
And thank you all for being here.

- Comment on A Podcast Episode about the Fediverse 5 weeks ago:
If you like that one, can I point you to mine? Fireside Fedi. Should be available on Apple as well as direct through my Peertube, TubeFree.org .
Actually starting a new one called WorksOnMyMahine.live as well.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Absolute best of luck to you! :) We need more diversity in software!
I hope AcitivityPub or some federation mechanism is being supported. :)
If you ever want to come on a podcast, Fireside Fedi, let me know. :)
Also if/when you’re ever needing someone to test the software I’m starting another show called Works On My Machine Live where I install the software and talk to the dev during it.
