I’m not saying that they aren’t basically the antichrist. The problem is we need an actual good solution, just hard line telling people that this is evil so you should put in a shit ton of effort to not using it is just not realistic. It’s not going to sway people, i do use nebula and floatplane which i pay for. They have their own problems but they aren’t as bad as YouTube but more importantly they are usable.
It’s very sad that the people that have the skills necessary to actually make something open are always also just so Hardline head up their ass about self hosting everything. I can self-host plenty I have piped, immich, jellyfin, frontend replacements for pixiv, imgur and others as well as my own pastebin. I’m no stranger to self hosting but that doesn’t mean that I’m stupid enough to think that it’s a viable way to get rid of YouTube it’s just not

If i have to host my own instance and client to get usable results it’s a non starter for 99% the population. I do want better than YouTube in terms of open and privacy but not if the only possible trade is removing all sense of usability

So it can be unwatchable with buffering every 5 seconds at 360p?
Love me some alternative self host but every time I’ve ever tried any peertube instance the videos are unwatchable due to the painful slowness

- Comment on Reminder if you're leaving Discord for this Revolt server ( Linux + Steam Deck devs / creators) 4 months ago:
There is a single standard with no forks, I said not a single one followed. I run my own Matrix Home Server and use it frequently, there are a lot of different clients and there are a good number of them that do run their own features that are not exactly in Spec because one does not yet exist in the official spec. Stickers used to be a good example of that I remember when there were like three different clients Each of which implemented them in a different weird way until the spec finally landed on an implementation.
And even within this back there are some basic features not supported on certain clients and other such problems. I’m just saying it’s not an alternative to Discord and it will never be mainstream because it’s too confusing and frustrating from the perspective of a standard user.
Same concept that made bluesky get popular over mastodon, trying to find anything on Mastodon of interest is a chore because there’s no real Central spot to do everything the very nature of it is that it’s scattered to the winds, there’s also multiple apps available for Mobile on Mastodon Each of which have different layouts, different features, and normal people that just want to be able to find their topic of Interest can’t be bothered to deal with that

Aaaaand this touches on the problem with matrix in general, no standard is properly followed, way too many forks with feature support all over the place

Well, once the service becomes large and popular we could try to find people interested in investing into the platform, then we just need to make sure it stays interesting to more and more investors over time. Should be sustainable, sounds oddly familiar tho but i definitely just made it up rn on my own

I mean there is the fact that having the shower running while you’re sitting there taking a shit is kind of a waste of water, disregarding pain for it there’s also just the waste in general. Drinkable water is actually becoming a lot more scarce than I think people realize.
That being said I have absolutely no right to say anything because I take like 15 to 20 minute showers when I could absolutely take shorter ones so shit away my friends
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 6 months ago:
It’s difficult to be sympathetic because you are viewing the property as an asset financially. And not as a place to live, he likely does not give a shit that it’s appreciated and value because he has absolutely no intention whatsoever of selling and he plans to live there till he dies and that’s how housing should be viewed

- Comment on Can enough solar pannels decrease the global temps? 8 months ago:
The worst part is that convincing people to use less is difficult even when it’s something easy. Let’s say for example that your dryer brakes and you need to replace it and up until this point you’ve been using either a standard resistive electric dryer or a gas dryer. Heat pump dryers are now readily available, of good quality, and use literally 1/4 the power of a resistive electric to do the same job.
If we could convince everyone to just only buy heat pump dryers from this point forward that alone would create a ridiculous drop in energy usage for drying clothes as it’s a very energy intensive task. But people don’t like things that are different and so convincing them to try it is very hard. I had to basically purchase one for my grandparents to get them to be willing to try it and now they love it but initially they were very strongly against trying
There’s also a bunch of dumb but sometimes arguments. Take LED stop signs for example one of the biggest arguments against them is in places where it tends to snow every year they say oh well they aren’t worth it here because when it snows they get covered and if you put a heating wire on them to melt the snow then you’re not saving any power over the standard ones. But it’s like hello rub a couple brain cells together unless you are somewhere where it snows 365 days of the year you’re still saving the power whenever it’s not snowing which is a pretty drastic amount of power across an entire city or state.
I could sit here and give examples all day but suffice to say convincing people to use less even when It ultimately results in a better end result for them is exacerbatingly difficult

Unfortunately flushable wipes are not flushable. If you actually read on the packaging what they mean by flushable they just mean that they are saying it won’t clog your specific pipes.
however will not properly break down in the sewer and absolutely do still cause giant clogs that sewer workers have to manually tear apart. Which I mean makes sense just think about it a wet wipe literally has to be wet from the moment it’s created and packaged while it sits in the store and after it gets to you and still be usable. It obviously doesn’t break down in water or else it would just be debris by the time you opened it

If you go rural enough and you find the mom and pop Christian own thrift stores you can still get those kind of deals.
Just recently I went to such a place and I got five stainless steel large (4qt) spice jars and a bunch of silverware for like $7 total.same things woulda been like $15 each at goodwill
