While I agree, I also think in the case of peertube part of it might also be that there aren’t enough people watching for viewership to clearly highlight quality videos

I’ve found better stuff by asking around for good channels, or learning that folks I follow have made a peertube channel, than I have by trying to use the interface. The discovery isn’t especially good.

There are only a couple decent channels I’ve watched but I get the honest impression there are more, they’re just burried in stuff. Also depends what you’re looking for. There are far more Foss youtubers who mirror over there and make decently high quality stuff than is available for a a lot of other genres of video

There definitely isn’t much, but I think there’s potentially more than is immediately obvious

I feel very strongly that the best thing any person can do for the fediverse is make it a place worth being :)

At some point I wanna write about it and share my thoughts to try and encourage folks to be intentionally kind in how they shape the culture of this space. I think the fediverse will succeed when the fediverse when folks get here and decide it’s a nice place to be. Plus it just makes me happy :)

Thank you very much for the kind words, it means a lot to me, it’s always nice seeing your face around ☺️ hope you have a good one blaze!

I didn’t know that, thank you :)

I mean it also does just appeal to a very different demographic than the fediverse has been built by.

Reddit/lemmy is a favored format for technical folks and twitter/Mastodon is very general purpose (facebook is more so, but it’s not really a many-to-many network)

Pinterest and DeviantArt are worthwhile pretty much exclusively to arts folks (which is also just a narrow demographic for something as niche as the fediverse), and the fediverse is pretty oriented towards technical folks, as that’s who built it. You also see that pattern in linux, the development of which has significantly more technical resources than design, with the notable exception of GNOME (not to say it’s objectively good or right for everyone, just that they balance their resources differently)

Like a solid half of the fediverse is just technical open source nerds. Who I love, mind you, but it isn’t exactly the category of people likely to value pinterest, or DeviantArt.

I use it to save images as reference that still links back to the original content. That way I can make boards of reference or inspiration that contains links to the source for more detail or ideas, without having to save an image and then save a link and then keep them together somehow.

And if you just bookmark stuff you can’t pull it all up and look at it together as like a reference board.

The federated aspect would probably just be to enable decentralization while still allowing as many people as possible to contribute to the total image pool and organize them, which would teach the platform what images how to organize them so other people can find them.

I’m not actually sure honestly. I’d like a Pinterest alternative too.

Pixelfed or Friendica for art pages might be the closest thing to deviantart (as best I’m aware at least). Pixelfed is modeled after instagram, friendica is modeled after facebook.

The network of microblogging sites like Mastodon or miskey (twitter-like) is the biggest fediverse platform, after that is probably reddit like platforms (lemmy, kbin, piefed) and pixelfed.

Most other platforms like peertube (YouTube alternative), loops, friendica, and probably a much of others, are still on the smaller side and still feel much different from their corporate counterparts due to the size difference. They haven’t really hit a “critical mass” yet in my opinion. They’re still cool and worth trying out if you’re interested though :)

The fediverse is still growing, but I’m not sure there are direct couterparts for those specific user experiences yet.

Regardless, welcome! I’m glad you’re here :)

Other people have already given more than enough answers, but welcome! I’m glad you’re here 😊

The Australian researchers and doctors behind the operation announced on Wednesday that the implant had been an “unmitigated clinical success” after the man lived with the device for more than 100 days before receiving a donor heart transplant in early March.

Just in case anyone else also found the title ambiguous regarding whether “100 days” meant he died 😅

If you put them up for sale somewhere I’d love to know about it!

Hope you have a lovely day ☺️

Is that a sticker we can get? That looks dope
