I consider two things to think Peertube not being sustainable isn’t the case.

First, the noise caused bad actors / professional fearmongerers, and people too used to Youtube or that think any social medias would skyrocket in the first month of service, may make people think it’s a far more prevalent opinion.

Second, platforms such as Peertube may cather to any movements, be them cultural, political, for business, and so on, while also, due to being based on instances, it much harder to be taken over.

Those two together make me see the project as having great potential, a potential that some may fear intentionally or otherwise.

And on a side note, “the new mobile app” reminds me, anyone could potentially make programs for it, or even integrate Peertube to their own. Another reason for it being able to cather to way more people, I think, as then programs could be made to interests and needs otherwise not found.

Like others said in other responses, Peertube may be a good call. Iirc, there’s also a reels-type of federated platforms akin to TikTok too, but I can’t remember the name.

Thanks! Also will try to find info on that upcoming one.

Indeed seem to be few to me too. But I wonder elsewhere, like a Japanese Piefed instance and a S. Korean Mastodon instance I found before.

On Mbin instances, it joins 1:1 posts together. Maybe something to ask for the Lemmy engine devs to add?

If you’re sticking to Firefox-based browsers, Waterfox seems to be the fork closest to Firefox without being controlled by Mozilla.

From the little I have seen, there seemed to be quite a few on Misskey instances, though I don’t know how representative it is if compared to, e.g., X/Twitter, where most of the artists I would find were at.

I don’t know how much of a subset I am, but I still use dictionary softwares from Windows 95~2000 era and Android softwares on a completely offline and vanilla VM, partly due to internet randomly going bad, and partly because I am neurotic about digital contents vanishing once support ends.

Can it be used offline?
