All of the people recommending matrix don’t understand why signal is secure. Matrix offers the same level of end to end encryption as Facebook Messenger, but it’s federated so people who care more about federation than privacy like to misrepresent its safety

Only if the signal crew collectively fell down, hit their heads and forgot about their whole mission of protecting metadata privacy. Matrix is a privacy nightmare (compared to signal). It offers optional encryption for the actual text of the messages sent, but everything else from room membership lists to reactions are unencrypted and stored forever by the server. The end to end encrypted message feature was bolted on after the rest of the thing was built, and it shows.

We’ve seen https://signal.org/bigbrother/ where signal proudly shows that they don’t have any metadata about their users to turn over. There’s a reason we don’t see anything like this for matrix.

Matrix is good at federating, but fucking horrible at keeping your information safe.

All depends on your definition of “properly secure”. As far as I know, most users do not host their own server

if it's not free what's the benefit of using PeerTube? You're basically describing nebula

You're allowed to upload the same .mp4 file to multiple websites. There's absolutely no reason why a creator that isn't getting YouTube ad money couldn't upload to YouTube and PeerTube at the same time. Presumably if they're getting YouTube monetization, they have some kind of exclusivity agreement.

The triangular top of the building in the center looks like a play button and I tried to click it several times. I don’t know if that’s the joke or im just stupid

Seems unlikely that a creator would jump ship from a platform that pays them to a platform that doesn’t. That being said, lots of creators also constantly complain about demonetization, so maybe they’ll start to get fed up and move to purely in-video sponsorship things. Seems most likely from a creator that’s already on a platform like nebula

Can’t tell if this didn’t work or mlem just isn’t rendering it right. Also can’t edit or delete.

Edit: used web ui on mobile, made it work
