Am I allowed to throw my hat in the ring? I'm definitely No expert and I'm constantly learning, but I have vods of my live streams, gaming and tech, and I'm running Fireside Fedi a show about talking with different folks around the Fediverse. Let me know if I can post the link. I don't want to self promote of that's not what folks are looking for here.

Aldo I would say that we're still very early in the Fediverse life cycle. Majority of these folks aren't paid or are a shoestring budget and solo with tiny teams. So if we want to see this experiment survive we have to do more than what we've done in the past.

Talk to content creators you enjoy. Let them know you'd like to see their content on the Fediverse. Especially if you're a patreon member. Create content yourself. The Fediverse will succeed or fail based on our actions.

The internet wasn't born in a day and a LOT of projects failed, because everyone took the easy centralized way. This time we have to fight for it to remove their claws.

Thank YOU for the reminder about the Owncast community. I've been shirking my duties. ;-) Thank YOU for creating content on the Fediverse! <3 It was a great stream.

Never played Sam & Max, but folks during the live stream recommended it as well.

Classic. My favorite adventure game of all time. Followed by Space Quest games. Might have to play those again as well. I think we need some retro games on Peertube. :-D

Time for Fediverse yet anyone?

I'm hearing Twitch streamers say they just move their stuff to YouTube. Good call giving YouTube more power obviously couldn't backfire.

Am I allowed to throw my channels in the ring?

I'll put them behind spoiler tag in case people don't like self promotion

Yes, but I work from home. :-).

Seems like it'd be a crapshoot either way. Reddit and Lemmy.

Happy I'm on the Fediverse. This the exact shit we attempted to warn people about forever.

Rebecca Black Linux came first!

Hey! Me too! Way to stand up with something to the point someone had to call you out in a racist tirade as well! Good job! Keep up the good work being a good person and pissing off assholes for being positive! I know I will!

Ouch. Holy shit that hits close to home.

I've talked to friends that were very excited Trump won. Recently tried having an open conversation with someone that left my community afterwards over the conversations because I didn't come to his side.

They just believe it'll be better. What better? They don't know. They can't verbalize, because they're told it's terrible now and will be better.

They believe Trump isn't a criminal, didn't incite violence on Jan 6, the woke people are out to get them, etc. I've literally asked people to define "woke" for me when they use it that way. They can't. They don't know. They're not bad people, they're brainwashed at this point.
