Voyager should be on there.

[-] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 51 points 2 months ago

That’s what I use but it’s just one of the several way to access Lemmy which is the first app shown.

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 17 points 2 months ago

Nope. Preference should not be made.

Maybe. But it's probably more important to start with Lemmy than which app to use.

What’s the most “mainstream” peertube instance? All I’ve seen is niche gaming stuff. Is there an instance that is more of a youtube replacement?

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Really? I just installed it and all I see is news in French. When I try to add more "platforms", it tells me that I need to choose a platform first, but doesn't give me any options. It's like it just expects me to figure that out on my own. Very unintitive.

She has been a good evangelist for the fediverse, IMO, based on my reading of her posts on Mastodon the last couple months.

loops doesnt federate. why is it there?

no mbin (interstellar)?

[-] Ulrich@feddit.org 27 points 2 months ago

Because it's brand new and will eventually federate. The developer is deep in the fediverse so 100% it will

[-] kat@orbi.camp 10 points 2 months ago

But right now it doesn't....

[-] Ulrich@feddit.org 8 points 2 months ago

It's really not a technicality to get worked up about.

[-] kat@orbi.camp 3 points 2 months ago

I disagree. Anybody that joins Loops right now is forced to the one instance. That's not federation. That's not an issue for you. Which is valid. But you don't get to police those who don't share your view.

[-] Ulrich@feddit.org 5 points 2 months ago

Nobody is "policing" anyone, I just don't think it's a valid argument.

They've done federation on a few test posts, but it's definitely not there yet for normal users to use.

[-] neon_nova@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 months ago

My understanding is that it will when it’s more strange and that the dev did the same thing with Pixelfed.

[-] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 21 points 2 months ago

im a big fan of not marketing your product until it can do the things you intend. theyve been spamming loops everywhere for over 6 months.

[-] CMLVI@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

It's also very featureless. Basically videos, comments, likes. I'm on it, and I've opened it maybe 6x in 2 weeks? I also think it's just an open feed; all the videos posted in chronological order (but I could be wrong here). Idk if this goes against the Fediverse creed to have an algorithm-fed feed, but I think part of the nature of these short form, endless-scrolling apps is finding vids about your interests from new places.

[-] ButtDrugs@lemm.ee 11 points 2 months ago

I think we should ultimately support algorithm feeds, but they should be free and open algorithms that can be peer reviewed, and also maybe give the users some control over which algorithm is applied and how. The problem with current social algorithms is they operate in the dark and are manipulative, not that they provide relevant content to users.

Well Microsoft has been doing it for 30 years.

[-] alekwithak@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

With the Tiktok ban I think marketing it prematurely has been a good thing and introduced a number of people from that world into the fediverse.

[-] obinice@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Peertube, a voyeurism site for vids of people peering in through window curtains? :P

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Nah, it's a torrent client.

[-] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 months ago

Gotta collect them allll… FEDIVERSE!

[-] Sailing7@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago

Darn thats High-Res. Nice!

Am I the only one who is bothered by this pic. It looks so fake and photoshopped.

Maybe it’s because my phone has weird contrast settings for accessibility.

Obviously I think whoever made this pic has great intentions and it’ll definitely be good enough for an article banner or something which is what it’s most likely to be used for.

[-] Slax@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago

Here is Elena's message on mastodon about it: https://mastodon.social/@_elena/113899740641675793 I guess you can always provide some feedback!

Nah I’m not gonna dunk on her effort. I’m glad she made it. Don’t wanna be a downer to her.

But it just looks off to me.

[-] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

If you have constructive feedback, it seems like the photographer is open to it. It's not dunking on anyone to say "hey great work and cool idea, just so you know the image looks a little "off" on my screen, possibly due to my accessibility settings, which are blah blah blah... hope this helps, thanks for the great work!"

[-] FellowEnt@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah it's a bad composite, not just you.
