I wouldn’t mind paying a monthly subscription to the creators I enjoy in Peertube.

I’m already doing it through Patreon, but doing through Peertube would be better as these creators would see that the money is coming from a Peertube user.

Yeah Lemmy is really a perfect replacement without any big downside. I really enjoy the community and the help you can get from it.

I’d be really happy about anything bringing more people on Lemmy and the Fediverse, so I wouldn’t complain about it.

Maybe I’m not seeing the big picture as some people seem to be scared of such a move.

I was talking about channels, reviewing games and so on.

Not the odd homemade video…

Something that you could follow long term to keep being informed, like IGN or gamespot for instance.

I still have to really try it, but last time I typed « PlayStation » and there was almost no result…maybe it’s just the lack of content though…

Give what you can and if you can’t it’s also okay.

I’m only giving 1$ a month to the Linux Experiment, but, according to him, that’s way more than what he would get from me watching his videos on YouTube.

I’m also donating 100$ a year to many open source projects, but I might have to give up because of financial troubles too…

Some of them can be supported through Patreon and they’re getting way more money than through YouTube.

But it’s through that it lacks content and it’s also difficult to find content on peertube.

Is it also on iOS? I couldn’t find it and I’m stuck on iPhone because of work.

I’m using peertube quite a lot to follow the Linux Experiment on Tilvids and it works really well.

It’s true that finding other creators to follow looks difficult and the search result aren’t giving you much.

It’s a shame as it makes me keep relying on YouTube for everything gaming (PlayStation) related when I would want to use it less.

Maybe it’s gonna become easier when the upcoming mobile app is launched.

Yes it would be nice to have more people on Lemmy to have more activity in the smaller communities, but otherwise I don’t think it’s so important.

Wouldn’t it be possible to create a Lemmy instance on Peertube (linked to our Lemmy accounts) just for this reason?

I know the videos would take a large space, but as peertube is a video platform, it wouldn’t be such a problem I guess.

Personnaly I can understand how it can seem difficult for not so geeky people.

It’s not difficult, but scary for normal people.

Interesting. I really hope we can grow Lemmy while not losing its identity.

I agree. No one knows Lemmy.

Still, as long as there is enough activity on it, I’m happy.

Makes me wanna puke 🤮

Good as everyone should be able to try to do some repairs when something is broken.

But programmed obsolescence is even worse as you have perfectly working devices which you can’t use anymore because they are officially not supported (by an os for instance).

Well just to give an update, I’ve now installed Fedora on that MacBook Pro and it was pretty easy. The only thing which didn’t work out of the box was the wifi. I had to install ROM fusion and then it downloaded some drivers.

Otherwise everything ran smoothly except for the installation of the windows 10 virtual machine in gnome boxes. I had installed the flatpak one, but that one doesn’t allow you to use the usb ports, so I had to reinstall the machine on the Rpm version.

So that old beast can now have a long life again!

Well finally I think we’ll keep MacOs Catalina for when she wants to use Apple stuff and dual boot it with Fedora for everything else. That way she can also slowly ease herself into using Linux.

Since I already have a perfectly set up Fedora installation, I wanted to know if anyone had an idea on how to duplicate it without going through 1000 steps.

But I might be in the wrong place since the second part isn’t really Apple related…

Apple is making really good hardware but we should stop buying it because of what they are doing against repairabality or because of the fact that they trying to capture you in their ecosystem.

I’m still really happy with my Netflix subscription , but it’s clear for me that I’ll never subscribe to 2 streaming services at the same time.
