Did you know that #Youtube can pull your videos straight from your own #Peertube server?

You don't have your own Peertube?

We run #TubeFree where we give 50GB of total storage, with options to go higher with a donation!

tubefree.org

See givebutter.com/givebtfree for prices!

Want help building your OWN Peertube? We can help there as well! Just message me and let's work together!

I love the #Fediverse. I love #Peertube. Our strength is: we're decentralized. Our weakness is: we're decentralized. How do we find like instances and things WITHOUT an algorithm?

Well I run tubefree.org. I know Makertube.net is a good instance. I follow that instance. However, I trust the admins there, why not follow who they follow? Thus we have a chain of trust.

How do I do this easily though? I came up with a script: git.btfree.org/BTFree/PTIndex

Want to USE the index on YOUR Peertube so you follow everyone I follow, and follow those I trust and who they follow? Go to your Peertube - Settings - General - Federation - Check "Automatically follow platforms of a public index" - Index URL: ptindex.btfree.org .

Want to be involved in the chain of trust? Message me! I'm here @ozoned , @ozoned@piefed.social , @ozoned:matrix.org , ozoned.01 on Signal, ozoned@btfree.org via email.

Anyone #livestreaming any #gdc news on the #fediverse ?

@reiver@mastodon.social is there a #FediCon account? Or shall we follow you for updates?

I have to make sure I'm there this year, so I want to make sure I can start scheduling things as early as possible. 😁

If you're #American , please make sure you've frozen your #credit like 5 years ago... If not, then PLEASE do it tomorrow.

#FediForum2026 is coming up in April, 28th - 30th. If you don't know what #FediForum is, it's an online #unconference where we all get together, talk about what projects folks are working on, meet each other, etc. I've been to two of them last year and I've met so many fantastic folks there.

What other #conference are people going to that is related to the #Fediverse ?

I know #Fedicon is sometime later this year. I've already missed #FOSDEM but that'll come around again, next February I think?

Good day all!

Are there any of you out there that have any kind of stories about moving communities onto the Fediverse?

Whether that be you moved your family, you moved your friends, you moved your church.

Anyone out there have a success story?

If so, what worked for you? What didn't work for you?

I'd LOVE to hear from you, as our strength is all of us together. Let's all learn from each other!

Is anyone attempting to start a business where you attempt to sell the Fediverse to places?

Good day all! TODAY on Fireside Fedi!

@lich_silvae@masto.fediverse.games thank you so much for joining me. And thank you for all you're working towards.​ I'll look forward to learning about music from a lich. 😁

@PalePimp@poa.st @boilingsteam@mastodon.cloud I could definitely see a path there. That scares the hell out of me and I hope you're wrong. But definitely possible. Thank you for sharing.​

@boilingsteam@mastodon.cloud ​it'll be interesting to see how that's supposed to work. I'm not in NY so I don't fall under those laws. But I can just grab a new OS from somewhere else as I run Linux and GrapheneOS. Any third party that houses that info will be a MASSIVE target for hackers. I think these things are years away from being implemented and practical. Just because a law exists, doesn't mean it's enforceable. It'll definitely be interesting to watch. And states will be sued and it'll take years to move through courts as this is entirely new ground. So we'll have to see how they're classifying the internet and how they justify it.

I'll say this though, I'm against this kind of thing personally, but I think all of these people are attempting g to do anything they can to dig us out of the current pit we're in. The road to hell is paved with good intentions though.

@PalePimp@poa.st @boilingsteam@mastodon.cloud definitely is a slippery slope. But if I run my own and you run your own, plus with the end to end encryption for DMs in the works​, they'd need more than just these laws to get access to either of our servers. And anything public In post, well it's public.
