How could three people downvote this important technology news?!
The truly sad thing is this is before I standardized my email and username for gaming so there's no telling what email I used in order to be able to recover my account. My golden Drake with over 2000 magic power is forever lost ✊😞
did I miss some recent news
Yes, and also not so recent news because it's been doing a nose dive since February at least.
The only subreddit I still go to is for my local city/metroplex. The moment enough people from my area are on Lemmy to where I can keep up with local events and views here is when I'm done with Reddit forever. It'll happen eventually but it'll probably be a few more years.
There should be an instance of just Freds that's called the Frediverse. You have to send them ID to prove your name is actually Fred and only Freds are allowed on the instance. I'd follow those communities as a non-Fred.
Unpopular opinion? Mastodon is a better Twitter than Lemmy is a better Reddit.
That's not unpopular, that's just fact. I enjoy Lemmy but it's fairly new. Mastodon has been around for a while longer and is a much more mature platform with more QOL features because of that. Comparing them on that basis doesn't really prove or mean anything at this point. Of course the teenager is more developed than the toddler, that's how it works. Lemmy will get to the same place with time.
Beans was SO two weeks ago, gawd.
It for sure has it now but this will increase it tenfold, easily. It's about to get so much worse in the coming year as these changes have time to work.
Idk, must be resolved because I'm on the mobile browser for lemmy.world and it's fine 🤷
As a non-furry artist seeing how much the furry community supports small artists is really making me consider doing furry art lol
After a Kickstarter ends you get access to the pledge manager where you can change your pledge if you want. So if you donate one dollar, you could then change it to a greater amount in the pledge manager after the end date.
was so much fun.
It still is! I'm over 30 and still having fun with the alternative looks! I also work in IT remotely, so, milage may vary.
So do the thing.
If your goal is to start a channel, you won't fail because that's easy. Just start it and boom you're done. Goal accomplished.
Now if your goal is to start a "successful" PeerTube channel things get interesting. Mainly, what do you define as successful? Lots of viewers? That's doable. Profitable? That becomes harder. Sustainable? You could do that imo. Just a place to share your thoughts? You got that. There are more ways to define success but those are just examples.
So the first thing to do is really ask yourself what your goal is for this channel. What do you want it to do or represent?
I think it makes sense, but I'll say be careful not to burn yourself out or get down on yourself if it's not shaping up how you expected. Especially since you haven't quite defined what you're using your channel for.
Good luck OP
