Idk, I don't keep track of it I just click the links lemming give me lmao
I do think the last one I tried was peertube.wtf a couple days ago
Videos without audio? Imgur can handle mp4s and imgur links autoplay in the Lemmy apps ive used (Boost and Voyager)
Videos with audio, well really YT is the best place, pretty much anybody who cares about YT tracking/ads/views will have processes/plugins in place to handle YT links. Like there are plugins that will automatically modify a YT link to a designated invidious instance or whatever
If you really really don't want to upload to YT, a Peertube instance is your best bet, unfortunately just don't expect it to be particularly...fast. Every Peertube video I've tried to watch buffered every 10-30 seconds, but I don't blame them, video is very intense, expensive and difficult to handle compared to every other media type
We can actually talk about things without overwhelming censorship, strange algorithms, or ads.
think the biggest instance, lemmy.world, not being operated by the Lemmy devs is also a good health indicator
Doubly so considering how the main devs manage their instance according to their highly controversial political views LMAO
Steven Universe is such an excellent show, I can't believe it came out of Cartoon Network LMAO
Have they done anything as good since?
Ah I get it now, you're most likely a .ml alt account, so goodbye!
Tankie definition: "authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.
You would warn newcomers about the Tankie Triad too if you had repeatedly seen all the stories of "I tried Lemmy, but it just seemed like a bunch of tankies, turns out it was just because I was on .ml when I tried it again"
There's tons more that never came back and go on life thinking Lemmy is Voat 2.0. I know this because there's plenty of comments on Reddit whenever Lemmy comes up about "it's just Tankies over there"
Yes, how dare I try to protect Lemmy's rep, I don't want to see this place become Voat 2.0
It's not a straight deal breaker for me, but it's a pretty big barrier, I just can't leave Boost lol 😔
Sounds like it's coming along
Heh I'm finding out so much about how inadequate the blocking system on Lemmy is the past couple days. I'm not a conspiracy theorist type of person, but it's so bad it almost feels... intentional lol
Welcome happy you're here! We've got memes on deck at !memes@lemmy.world and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful !science_memes@mander.xyz or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like !science@mander.xyz and !astronomy@mander.xyz. !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.
We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian "communists" who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the "gold standard"), but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a Reddit.org account so iirc you only need to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works
The W3C (The body that dictates web standards) specification, that describes what browser engines should handle, like CSS features, HTML5 etc and how is equivalent to thousands of pages long and there are huge standards to implement.
HTML5 is a big thing to implement, so is CSS and the JavaScript engine and probably even more technologies I'm forgetting
And that's just implementation, it takes even more work to get them running well enough for the average end-user
Ladybird has been working on their from scratch engine for ~5 years iirc and they're not planning to even have the first alpha out until next year lol
You'd think, but from what I understand the Invidious/YT cat and mouse game is rather intense so the larger public instances often don't work and it's better to use smaller private or personal instances instead
So most who care have opted to just set something up to handle YT links on the fly
