Oh neat, any way to make bongs? I was told bongs I had to be especially careful with because you're inhaling out of it instead of just eating
I thought you weren't supposed to make food, bongs or uh "other bodily items" with a 3d printer
You'd think, but from what I understand the Invidious/YT cat and mouse game is rather intense so the larger public instances often don't work and it's better to use smaller private or personal instances instead
So most who care have opted to just set something up to handle YT links on the fly
Idk, I don't keep track of it I just click the links lemming give me lmao
I do think the last one I tried was peertube.wtf a couple days ago
Videos without audio? Imgur can handle mp4s and imgur links autoplay in the Lemmy apps ive used (Boost and Voyager)
Videos with audio, well really YT is the best place, pretty much anybody who cares about YT tracking/ads/views will have processes/plugins in place to handle YT links. Like there are plugins that will automatically modify a YT link to a designated invidious instance or whatever
If you really really don't want to upload to YT, a Peertube instance is your best bet, unfortunately just don't expect it to be particularly...fast. Every Peertube video I've tried to watch buffered every 10-30 seconds, but I don't blame them, video is very intense, expensive and difficult to handle compared to every other media type
We can actually talk about things without overwhelming censorship, strange algorithms, or ads.
think the biggest instance, lemmy.world, not being operated by the Lemmy devs is also a good health indicator
Doubly so considering how the main devs manage their instance according to their highly controversial political views LMAO
Ah I get it now, you're most likely a .ml alt account, so goodbye!
Tankie definition: "authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.
You would warn newcomers about the Tankie Triad too if you had repeatedly seen all the stories of "I tried Lemmy, but it just seemed like a bunch of tankies, turns out it was just because I was on .ml when I tried it again"
There's tons more that never came back and go on life thinking Lemmy is Voat 2.0. I know this because there's plenty of comments on Reddit whenever Lemmy comes up about "it's just Tankies over there"
Yes, how dare I try to protect Lemmy's rep, I don't want to see this place become Voat 2.0
It's not a straight deal breaker for me, but it's a pretty big barrier, I just can't leave Boost lol 😔
Sounds like it's coming along
Heh I'm finding out so much about how inadequate the blocking system on Lemmy is the past couple days. I'm not a conspiracy theorist type of person, but it's so bad it almost feels... intentional lol
Every once in a while I think about lighting up at my job so I could be like John from Jurassic Park now that I'm in IT
Unfortunately a) id probably get fired and b) I HATE the smell of cigarettes LMAO
