Love how you're making the videos available on a decentralized, community-run platform like Peertube, in alignment with your stated values!
Even better is how you've continued to engage with the community on this issue rather than just ignoring it and funneling users onto centralized surveillance platforms like YouTube! Way to go!
...Right?

+1 reason why you must stop using Chrome and, if possible, Chromium browsers
(Upd: link to a post in Fediverse with tech details fedi.simonwillison.net/@simon/…)
(Upd 2: MS Edge seems to have this issue; #Vivaldi also has it but it can be disabled; Ungoogled Chromium doesn't have it at all)

It turns out Google Chrome ships a default, hidden extension that allows code on `*.google.com` access to private APIs, including your current CPU usageYou can test it out by pasting the following into your Chrome DevTools console on any Google page:
chrome.runtime.sendMessage(
"nkeimhogjdpnpccoofpliimaahmaaome",
{ method: "cpu.getInfo" },
(response) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response, null, 2));
},

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.
The next beta version of #Signal will be version 7.0.0.
There's a good reason for the round number. This will be the first version where usernames and phone number privacy are available outside of the staging environment.
From this version on, you'll be able to talk to people on Signal without revealing your phone number, and also, you may use Signal without revealing to people who have your number saved that you do.
This is huge.

Facebook Has New Unsavory Ways Its Tracking You

Meet ‘Link History,’ Facebook’s New Way to Track the Websites You Visit
Facebook introduces a confusing new setting as the walls close in on Zuckerberg’s data machine.Thomas Germain (Gizmodo)
"... the website loads in a special browser built into the app, rather than your phone’s default browser. In 2022, privacy researcher Felix Krause found that Meta injects special “keylogging” JavaScript onto the website you’re visiting that allows the company to monitor everything you type and tap on, including passwords. Other apps including TikTok do the same thing."
What the hell?? This is so creepy.

New Privacy Badger Prevents Google From Mangling More of Your Links and Invading Your Privacy
We released a new version of Privacy Badger that updates how we fight “link tracking” across a number of Google products. With this update Privacy Badger removes tracking from links in Google Docs, Gmail, Google Maps, and Google Images results.Electronic Frontier Foundation
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.
