How do we activate this feature? I have it enabled after going into the developer settings menu but nothing seems to happen, I see mentions of an app but idk what the app is. I am on grapheneOS though instead of normal android so there could be something with that here.
Oh nvm I figured it out, it just took a bit for me to realize there was a new terminal app on my phone
I agree, let’s make it more friendly to people wanting to start a fediverse provider as a business so a big company can’t come in and gobble up everyone
Elastio seems to be a devops platform as opposed to a standalone “buy my service to get a feature rich access to the fediverse or mastodon or peertube specifically, whatever” service like the typical email service providers nowadays
To add to the initial comment, the reason why we would want this is the same reason why we should be donating to instance admins, it only gets more competitive and more work involved the bigger the fediverse gets and the more competitive it gets with offering unique experiences
Let’s look at email as a history example, google gobbled up everyone for gmail.
If fediverse goes the way of email where it infinitely will grow and compete for the most part eventually businesses offering instances as services will be the norm, we can just jump ahead and try to it right before big tech starts to gobble it up.
I think the answer is anything between what the fediverse is now and what email did to get where it is now…I’d like to see some kind of history of how email developed over the years now that I think about it, that would be pretty interesting at least.
On global switch day I’m pretty sure I convinced at least 1 person to try out mastodon but not sure
I’m doing my part too!
I don’t seem to be able to login, it tells me my password and username/email is incorrect.
Do we have to make a new account because the server is new or am I just running into some kind of error?
Also where can we best see updates about this peertube instance is here on Lemmy good or will they be through peertube or is there not really any solid plans for this yet?
I really appreciate the work going into this it seems like peertube.wtf has the goals in mind that I want out of a YouTube alternative!
Shoutout to lemmy.zip, y’all are a great instance!
Aaaand back down lol
This is the way
Looks like its up and running again!
Anyone know what happened to peertube.wtf?
When I search for it I am greeted with “502 bad gateway open resty”
I was using it and enjoying it a lot for a couple months then it started that and haven’t been able to access it since.
If I recall @meldrik@lemmy.wtf operates it?
Yes, I don’t think im required to express my interest that way haha
I once read somewhere that mentioned how Lemmy is actually bigger than reddit was at the same age. I don’t know if that is true or not but that’s pretty cool if it is and I think it means Lemmy is on a good track.
Are you trying to say that the name of smoke signal all is cultural appropriation?
Nice didn’t know this existed, plus its framasoft so its got more attached to it already than just a dev who started a thing recently
This cool new thing that was just created recently called smoke signal that is basically a fediverse alternative to website like meetup.com
Once I saw this I had realized what was missing from the fediverse experience and that this was it, local interaction!
i think you may be mixing federated and small-web feel there. there exists the ability for individuals to have functioning email servers although it is difficult but fair considering how much of the world is reliant upon it and opposing it with various kinds of attacks. i dont thimk it requires many individuals to have their own servers for it to be considered federated, the fact that we have dozens of relatively big email providers to choose from who prioritize various different things is enough to cover the majority of peoples needs and i think that is the threshold requirement for a sufficient self sustaining federated network. regardless of that, if you compare this outcome of email as of present to lets just say a platform like discord whose goal is to facilitate messaging between people, you can evidently say thst emails outcome is better than the proprietary service that discord is locking people into and not making alternatives ways of accessing the service a simpler process.
i dont know how email survived, i bet whatever happened there is what will make it work too
Just like the baby from 2001 space odyssey
