I like it a lot. I come here often, it’s a good addition to my reddit use, it has some nice people and some interesting content.
I love that it is decentralized, which means that there will always be a server without ads, tracking or bad governance.
Also it feels like being part of Lemmy is being part of something new and novel. The idea of decentralizing services online, away from corporate silos, should be resurrected.
I think the software is great!
If we could follow people, post to our own profile, and host/play videos, then it would be the only fediverse website anyone needs!
Mastodon is perfect fine for that purposes.
eh. PeerTube should be used for videos.
A link aggregator can then link to PeerTube videos rather than waste time on adding video support.
yeah, but, I need 3 accounts across 3 websites to participate in the fediverse. those features would make lemmy the one-stop-shop.
If lemmy would support videos it would be a much more difficult software to host. I like that it’s very lightweight.
I completely agree, but I think video hosting would be great as an optional addon
