For reference - below are Invidious main links and the different usages that I give to people as 'better links' thank the advert-using youtube.com youtu.be etc - people get a message from me with some of these links to start better advert-free practices with same exact video but no adverts:

redirect.invidious.io

= Advert-free Servers / Choose Geographic Regions (some show most popular videos on landing page and search box):

or redirect example for video:

redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=…

or individual instance example for video:

When will Nextcloud's release announcements #RegainControl of where their videos are hosted?

So far you've chosen to keep them silo'd off on a #proprietary, #centralized, non #privacy friendly #surveillance platform, ie #Google's #YouTube.

Is this what #Nextcloud / #NextcloudHub stands for?

So far, the repeated silence on this subject has spoken louder than any release announcement.

Eben. Chrom(ium) ist die Pest in Sachen #Datenschutz. Voll die Datenschleuder - wie alles von #Google 🤦

@alfredb

#Google is trying again to convince you, YES YOU, to contribute for free to Google Maps.
Please don't.
It is 100% #proprietary, Google has full control over the data you added and people can only access Google Maps over proprietary channels where Google dictates the rules. This gives them too much power.

Contribute to #OpenStreetMap instead, it's a project by the community, for the community.

openstreetmap.org

#OSM #GoogleMaps #PSA #scam #capitalism #OpenData

OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap is a map of the world, created by people like you and free to use under an open license.

^{OpenStreetMap}

So Nextcloud believes:
"#Privacy is a fundamental human right" Only posts videos to #Google's #YouTube.

"building #decentralized alternatives" Only posts videos to a centralized platform.

"We believe in open source" only post Videos to a proprietary platform.

"We value sustainability". Only posts videos to the platform using the most energy.

"users time is important", Only posts to a platform with forced ads.

"fostering diversity/community." Avoids community video networks eg #Peertube.

🤔

This is real. I just took this screenshot.

Sure, but face it: the scientific literature is not featured by the news media, and not often presented in forms that are likely to gain public appreciation.

Proposing: 1) Do what the devious disinformation specialists do: focus on youtube content - with plain language.

2) Regulate #Google to have it label youtube bullshit that is bullshit as bullshit -- or to put nicely: There is no credible evidence to make the claims within this video.

So Google is now preventing people from removing location data from photos taken with Pixel phones.

Remember when Google's corporate motto was "don't be evil?"

Obviously, accurate location data on photos is more useful to a data mining operation like Google.

From Google: "Important: You can only update or remove estimated locations. If the location of a photo or video was automatically added by your camera, you can't edit or remove the location."

It's enshitification in action.

Bluetooth support for the Stadia Controller is now live. R.I.P Stadia.

I expect they'd do a bunch of shortcuts for themselves to make it look in the public's eye like their own packages are done right from the day one, pretending to be this big and stable part of the #Rust ecosystem.

Why such lame outcome is expected? Because #Google has a history of abandoning stuff once money is sucked from it.

Features I didn't know were in #NextcloudTalk?

How about the ability to avoid sending all my messages, and my contacts messages to #Google via #Firebase / #FCM?

*checks*
Nope.

I'll be using #Matrix with #Element/#Fluffychat until you decide that #UnifiedPush is a thing and #privacy is actually important. Users already made #NextPush to make it easier. Is the current situation even #GDPR compliant?

This is more important than making the interface slightly prettier in Hub 3.

Promoting your video for a distributed, private, self hosted, FOSS app nowhere but a centralized, surveillance company owned, proprietary cloud video platform.

Seems legit.
