  • they are federated just as piefed is, but the difference is that in lemmy/piefed, you do not want to follow particular users, you follow communities. on peertube, you follow users. so when you watch a video on one instance, you can watch a video from different instance too, its just that peertube does not have a great recommendation algorithm. in lemmy/piefed, when you go to home page, and just search something, content from all comunities is shown. in earlier versions of peertube, you could not search across instances. now you can. if you want a better search, try - https://sepiasearch.org/


  • As I understand, It is just a general old people people mindset. Most old folk consider all lgbt stuff to primarily have “dirty” or “impure” thoughts (they essentially look at this not from as an identity part, but more of them being just “pervy”)(this as i understand is the general conservative idealogy - sex is taboo, but having “kids” is natural, you can have both). Not saying this justifies snoop dog’s behaviour. I am not a fan or a hater, just do not know much about them, just explains how could they do that and then this. to them, all lgbt stuff is “not for kids” and completely look over the identity aspect of it.

    His “support” is most likely a simple paid collaboration arranged by their team, and he does not care what it is about.

    Why imo it is still uplifting is because there is some event organised for lgbt folk, and that is always a good in my book. it helps normalise them.










  • there used to be more, but now news is the main thing.

    in olden times (of 2021), distro reviews/why linux is better/software showcase were the main things.

    there were folks like luke smith (not going to his political shit) would do demos for things like groff/troff (imagine a latex alternative, now it is pretty much only used for man pages). but you get the idea - they would demo software, use it, compare it.

    there is tle, who did lots of lists (like x amount of tools from elementary os which are great), linux cast would do file manager reviews, brodie would cover commandline stuff.

    now pretty much all 3 of them do news. I still watch brodie because his news at times is niche and kinda fun, but i really do not want to hear lkml drama (which is non existent).

    one of the youtubers which got me into linux was mental outlaw. he made tonnes of privacy/security/anonymity related videos back then, and occasional covered hacking news. i started trying to make windows more private (it truly started from try to make wwindows leaner), and then he, and tle got me into linux.

    now i do not watch almost any of them. (except brodie, and occasional tle and tlc)

    why all went to news - it is easier to make.
