Fediverse still going strong and stabilizing
(media.piefed.social)
Fediverse seems like its stabilizing: https://fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=1000
(and these are the servers that allow the crawler from the observer, so its highly likely the numbers are much larger).
We are seeing:
- A small decrease in users on Lemmy: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=365
- And a small increase on Piefed: https://piefed.fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=365
- Peertube is up in total users and stabilizing in active users: https://peertube.fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=365
- Mastodon is all over the place: https://mastodon.fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=365
Overall pretty good! Keeping the momentum going. Thanks everyone, whichever platform/instance you hail from!
ok. so i’ve got around 30tb (and counting) of live music recordings from a small club that hosts national touring folk and americana acts. i would LOVE to have it accessible somewhere other than youtube with all the fukin ads, but i am not sure how to go about making them peer tube accessible.
the instances that i’ve looked into have pretty low caps on storage and for clear and understandable reasons. but that leaves me in the lurch. i’m not able to set up my own instance as the recordings are ongoing and that takes all my available time and resources.
anyone have some knowledge that it don’t?
long live the fediverse.
You could upload the files to a S3 bucket, which would give them a url on the web. Then just make a PieFed post which links to each MP4 file.
Piefed will detect that it's a video post and embed it in the page with player controls. If you use a community just for your videos then the RSS feed of that community will effectively be a podcast.
S3 buckets are pretty cheap but 30 tb is still going to cost you. Transcode to a smaller file before upload, ideally.
