I think there are much better social media platforms for sharing clips. From what I’ve seen, most of Twitter is people angrily typing opinions at each other, so your target demographic may not be there. The UI is designed for text rather than video, and responses/reactions don’t integrate nicely with videos.

Sharing game clips on video-oriented social media makes a tonne sense, however.

Let me guess, the downside is infinite teeth.

I guess they’re discovering that your grocery store trip on Feb 17, 2017 does not help them target ads.

The data has costs associated with it: they’ll want to back it up, they need to migrate it when they change formats, they need to maintain the hardware it resides on.

And, as the article mentions, there are liabilities around law enforcement requests, costs due to data breaches, and regulatory requirements.

Three months is plenty for them to target ads.

That was an interesting read. Thanks for linking to it.

That’s pretty interesting. It looks like they define inaccessible links as urls that get a 404 or the server doesn’t resolve.

I wonder if there are any real implications of this. We seem to know it and work around it in some cases, e.g. StackOverflow saying answers need to contain quotes from pages they reference.

needing a login that would require an email address is sketchy as hell on the surface, and there’s no explanation given.

The link to the explanation is right beside the text saying you need an account.

no no no this is the internet that’s not how we do things here

they’re gonna need therapy

Older than what? Here are self reported stats from lemmy.ca:

people are still criticizing the Tiananmen Square massacre, and hasn’t anything happened since then? It’s like still making conspiracy theories about Kennedy’s assassination or 9/11, those are old news.

Lemmy skews old. For some of us, those are foundational events in our childhood.

(Kinda joking/kinda serious)

Briar and Futo Voice sound cool.

How do you trigger Futo Voice?

I don’t think software releases indicate the health of the community.

Having said that, I do feel like there are fewer posts and comments. The communities I visit have a handful of users, which makes it a bit claustrophobic.

The small userbase means we don’t get much variety in viewpoints or content, but it’s enough for me.

I’m hanging on because I’m hoping it’ll miraculously start growing. Any day now.

I don’t think software releases tell the story. From a non-mod perspective, Lemmy is an okay Reddit replacement.

But, recently, there seem to be fewer non-bot posts. The communities I follow have a handful of active users. It feels like it’s stagnant at best.

No ads, and I can use a client of my choice.

Can you give us a list?
