Just because it's less that becomes e-waste since I don't need them.
Because I don't use them. I either keep them in a pile at the bottom of a drawer or they go to a landfill.
Fair enough. But if you don't click the buttons, nothing happens. Or maybe there could be a "Don't filter anything" setting in your profile so you don't get the buttons at all.
I'd like the same thing. Plus I see a lot of posts asking for it too.
Hopefully the devs can add an "I'd like to see less/more of this" button. The next question is, how does the algorithm decide which posts to allow, is it by most upvotes, most recent, most comments, most controversial (lots of upvotes and downvotes), etc. Just brainstorming.
I'd say go for it. Even if you don't make a lot of content right away, you can still get a feel for how Peertube works, how to set up your channels, add thumbnails, how to automate closed captioning, etc.
Plus the hardest part will be choosing an instance, looking at the videos posted and seeing if you want your videos on that instance (extreme politics, NSFW stuff, etc). Plus see what their instance rules are; anyplace that says everyone is welcome here is eventually going to become a gathering spot for a--holes that got banned somewhere else.
I started my channel about a month ago during the Reddit migration. So far I've fallen behind on putting out videos, but it's still a fun hobby.
Additionally, if your server disappears *cough* VLemmy *cough* you should be able to load a backup from somewhere and register your channels on another server. I realize this is still a crawl-walk-run scenario and that's going to be far in the future. But we can still hope for it.
When it was working, did you have to put in any command line arguments or did it work on its own?
In my case, direct3d(dxvk) games always choose discrete graphics, but openGL always chooses internal and I have to force it from the command line.
"... one of those God-ugly American Pickup Trucks ..."
Why'd you say American Pickup Trucks twice?
I kid, but really those things are hideous. The front end looks like a Baleen whale feeding.
I had 3 communities I was trying to build up and now, nothing. I finally made a new Lemmy account, but I don't know if I want to restart those communities.
I'm thinking about starting my own instance (with blackjack and hookers of course) but that has its own set of headaches. I just want to make content, not spend my day being an admin.
And you could still have them at the same price.
I think the issue is that for these companies, it's cheaper to only make one SKU that includes the adapter (or sometimes a mini and full adapter) rather than making 2 or 3 separate SKUs. That costs extra money for the separate packaging, branding, registering UPC symbols, etc. and they're not sure if there's enough demand for it. And the profit margins on SD cards are razor thin already, so there's not much room to experiment with stuff like that.
It sucks for the environment.
