A group of over 40 European organisations have recently released a statement calling for the EU to set up a European Public Digital Infrastructure Fund.
They call for this fund to support Digital Public Spaces, that are, among other things, based in FOSS, and ensure privacy by design. The statement gives three examples: #Mastodon, #PeerTube and #ActivityPub, stating that they would benefit from such a fund to further flourish.
I’m hearing murmurs of YouTube blocking browsers that support ad blockers.
You know where you don’t have to worry about such things? Host your videos on a #PeerTube instance and use #Owncast for your live video streaming needs.
And here's what's causing my anxiety about joining a #PeerTube instance for my music stuff. I sift through and find an instance that fits my needs, head to the "About" page and see this:
HOW LONG WE PLAN TO MAINTAIN THIS INSTANCE "Currently plan to run this instance for the next year or so at least, depending on usage and financials."
I would assist with those financials, but it still doesn't fill me with any confidence that it's going to stick around...
@killyourfm What we really need to happen for #peertube is affordable hosted options, so they can be easier to set up and maintained by a community, much like #mastodon instances are becoming right now.
Or, if you prefer, treat a peertube instance like a personal space/website where users host their own content and simply federate with trusted instances to create hubs.
Have you wanted to run a @peertube server with open sign-ups, but you were worried about new members posting nasty content?
PeerTube's latest version 5.1 has just been released and includes sign-up requests, where people have to say exactly why they want to sign up. You then have to approve their request before their membership is activated.
You can use this feature to moderate who actually gets an account, and it should make PeerTube open sign-ups much easier to moderate 👍
¡Hemos abierto una cuenta de #PeerTube en @fediversetv ! Para traer al #Fediverso los vídeos que tenemos en sitios de dudosa reputación. 😊
Y para empezar, os dejamos con un vídeo que muestra como se preparan las cestas cada semana para que estén listas para el reparto.
Como sabéis, la CSA es una simbiosis entre los trabajadores y la Comunidad. Y una vez que los trabajadores dejan la cosecha en el local, las personas que están de voluntarias ese día las preparan como podéis ver en el vídeo.
Una petición para @fediversetv: ¿Se podía añadir en #Peertube en algún momento una categoría que sea "#Cultura"? No digo ya "#Literatura", que es mucho más específica, pero en una llamada "Cultura" podríamos subir entrevistas a escritores y escritoras, reseñas de libros, cosas de cultura popular como temas de pueblos, temas de #Historia... ¡Gracias!
#Fedilab allows to follow #Peertube instances (local videos). Could you suggest us some instances that we could suggest inside the app? Don't hesitate to share our message. Thank you.
I'll do a 50min commented Krita live painting for the first edition of Creative Freedom Summit, a new virtual conference for creatives using open source tools! ☺️🎨
