briar comes with calyxos, and I’ve been considering it. The shame is I don’t message all that much, and mostly use messagers for resources or distribution (can’t believe so much support is moving to discord)
Just trying to help increase interaction on lemmy :)

I’ve heard good things about Nebula, and I’m hoping to get an account when I’ve saved enough
I’m afraid YouTube is a different beast entirely when it comes to replacing it, so I’m going to have to branch out on what ‘alternative’ means.
loops.video is a tiktok-esque shortform video service on the fediverse owncast.online is a federated livestreaming platform, like twitch funkwhale.audio is the fediverse’s answer to music streaming. I’ve also heard good things about radiofreefedi.net and of course you’ve already heard of peertube.tv
but when it comes to YouTube, absolutely nothing holds a real candle to the variety anf quality of it’s content, so you might want to look into alternatives such as Dropout.tv, Nebula, Odyssee (I have heard very bad things about Odyssee, but including for variety), or frontends like Invidious, Freetube, and Newpipe.
Hope this helps :)
PS: I have a post asking for peertube video reccomendations, which might have a comment or two with something of interest.
Hell yeah! 2025 is the year of the linux Fediverse desktop!
I’m in the exact same boat. But I kind of realized, if I want to see a bigger fediverse, I’ll have to help build it up. As the classic saying goes, you can lead a horse to water; but first there’s gotta be water. So thank you for taking up the cause of building this lake :)
actually i don’t think that’s the saying
maybe this can make up for me not making one this year haha
I see where you’re coming from, historically the internet and large communities tend to foster that kind of aggression. I, for one, will be striving to build a positive environment though, and just maybe, we’ll see those fruits lead into a brighter future :). I myself am applying for some moderator positions to help take up that effort!
Never got very into short-form content, but I’ll give it some consideration!
Personally, I have hope that if a larger variety of people are posting and commenting (typical lurkers and such) then hopefully the echo chamber aggression will weaken a little, and hopefully foster a positive and friendly community. I’m trying to lead by example :)
welcome back, and good luck!
just hopped into a few, thanks for the recommendations!
is Loops out now? I was wondering when that’d come around.
hoping to join you there, friend
It’s a wonderful picture, thank you :) Sometimes I wish that I had saved old photos of mine before they’re lost to time.
I’ll look into it, thanks!
thank you!
I use Eternity, personally (feels good after having used Infinity so long), just how good is Thunder now?
yeah, the web-scraping is getting insane, but I think in my case, the motivation to contribute has finally overcome my data preserving tenancies.
You aren’t entirely wrong, but I feel it could help build an appearance of high activity, which would help attract people. Also; many people wish to contribute but stifle the words before they can come out of their mouth, and I’m hoping a post like this could be the push they needed.
I know mastodon is an opt-in search model, but yeah, search results are reddit’s biggest advantage
