@clacke It is. ARMedSlack

I'm getting some #miro vibes from #lbry .

@lnxw48a1 Not that Amazon is inherently more trustworthy than Google of course, but it's safer than having all his eggs in one basket.
-
@lnxw48a1 Actually, that's partially a lie. I don't know of anyone who has successfully *ditched* youtube, but there are youtubers such as NorthernLion who are diversified by having a presence on Twitch.tv. He regularly gets thousands of viewers on there on the NorthernLion Super Show, which happens..4 times a week I think?

@lnxw48a1 I have not, but that's exactly the problem ;) There are *technically* other sites than YT, but I doubt any of them....all of them combined have even 5% the userbase that youtube does. People have tried leaving youtube before for those other services and I'm not aware of a single one that's succeeded.

Because "ad friendly" is a bot based system which has practically no bearing on the actual content of your video. Look at any YT channel that's talked about this to see how many false positives the system has.

@stigatle Not trying to jump on you of course, just trying to offer a different perspective; I make no money on youtube (nor Twitch, which I just do for fun). But to get back on the topic: it makes perfect sense after you find out about this to mention to your fans at the farmer's market that hey, if the farmer's market doesn't reverse its stance you're going to have to get a different job and not have as much output. ...

Man I really need to figure out the problem with gnu-social-mode and character limits some time.

@lnxw48a1 suddenly trying to get you out of the farmer's market it's made you depend on when nowhere else in the area allows you to exhibit your art for a living and this is what you've poured all your effort in for years at this point? Yeah.
-
@lnxw48a1 Then the farmer's market decides that the art you've been making and exhibiting isn't what they want to exhibition with no warning and just stops paying you for it. In fact, let's say they stop paying you for it then tells you that they've decided they don't want to pay you for what you're exhibiting 2 weeks later (this is actually what happened). Is the farmer's market within its rights to stop paying you to exhibition? Yes. Are you right to be upset that the farmer's market is ...

@lnxw48a1 I like the way Jim Sterling put it (he doesn't have a horse in the race, being patreon-funded): Let's say that you do some work, like, say, painting. You've done painting for years, you do it every day, and you exhibition it at the local farmer's market. Your art draws customers to the farmer's market and so the market pays you for it; in fact, it does its best to encourage you to make it your full-time job so that the farmer's market always has quality art to draw people in.

I ask because 1: mastodon's webfinger indicates that it's an xml description, yet it returns a json description, and 2: social's webfinger indicates json or xml with the same url, and seems to always return json.
-
Hey !fediverse , is there anything that distinguishes what format you get your descriptor back after a webfinger?
-
Whoops, there we go. Lighttpd upgrade changed where the config file was supposed to be :)
-
@lnxw48a1 Horseshoe theory: extreme left is similar to extreme right.

Aaaand we're back. Package upgrades occurring now.
