Gotta say, it feels great being able to promote @nextcloud@mastodon.xyz 's posts at long last now that they're POSTING THEIR VIDEOS ON PEERTUBE!!! (On their own instance no less!)

I've yelled at them for... a long time, so now it's time to give credit where it's earned. It's great to see y'all living up to the values of privacy, data control and decentralization with your videos.

Way to go Nextcloud! 👏 👍

PS If you haven't subscribed to Nextcloud's peertube channel yet, show them the effort was worth it and FOLLOW THEM NOW! It's at @nextcloud@peertube.nextcloud.com (you can follow from Masto or any Fedi client, too)

YouTube's AI-powered moderation system needs to be held accountable.

YouTube's automated moderation systems are a joke. 😐

Hidden inside every growing hypha lies a microscopic powerhouse — the #Spitzenkörper.
It’s not just a blob at the fungal tip — it’s the traffic controller, architect, and GPS of fungal growth. 🍄
This video will uncover how this mysterious vesicle cluster orchestrates the very architecture of life beneath our feet.

A Humorous Way To Carry Out A Social Experiment

This video, from a friend of mine, appears to be under attack by Youtube Itself. They are constantly resetting the Thumbs up on it between 1 and 0 in real time. Evidently the AI Algorithm is doing this to anything with a Portland Connection...

Please Watch on Youtube and Thumb

YouTube to pay $24.5m to settle Trump lawsuit over Capitol riot

As part of Monday's settlement, YouTube will pay $22m to the Trust for the National Mall, a non-profit group that is aiming to raise $200m to build a new ballroom at the White House.

Another $2.5m will be paid to other organisations and individuals who joined Trump's lawsuit, including the American Conservative Union.

YouTube is the latest major platform to settle with the president.

@petrisch
Here's the thing. I don't even begrudge Nextcloud posting videos to YouTube. The part I have a problem with is that they say they're promoting decentralization, yet after all these years they refuse to post to any alternative.

Similarly, they provide no option to use @unifiedpush , but *only* allow Googles Firebase for notifications.

Using Google trackers on the website is pretty ridiculous though when such high quality alternatives exist, such as @Matomo .

They also never bother to explain WHY they continue to ignore all of these things that so obviously go against the values they supposedly stand for, Just crickets to any questions and more promotional videos / blog posts.

#Nextcloud #Google #Privacy #Peertube #UnifiedPush #YouTube

releases a new video / blogpost for Nextcloud Talk for #DataControl.

The blog post embeds Google trackers.

The video can *only* be watched on a Google surveillance platform.

The app depends on Google / Apple for notifications.

Does anyone else see the problem here? None of these are necessary.

YouTube doesn't like self-hosting content.

Nextcloud finally ending their exclusivity arrangement with Youtube.

That's coming in 2025... right?

Exclusively on Youtube by Google! What open source inspiration! What a monument to privacy and decentralization!

When will #Nextcloud open a #PeerTube channel?

#YouTube is also #BigTech. Challenge them too!

I seldomly boost posts with links to BigTech.

At the request of many of you (no experience yet myself) herewith additional graphics to boost global switch day across multiple platforms on February 1st 2025.

Also a big big shout-out to all the beautiful people who develop and maintain the software for the decentralized social web. Please help them build the #fediverse for everyone by making a donation. Thank you.

You do see the irony of posting a video about the importance of digital sovereignty...

...only to YouTube.

You see that, right?

Me checks to see if @nextcloud 's videos are finally being boosted onto an open video network after years of pointing out the hypocrisy... aaaaaand nope.

I'll pass. I don't feel like being extra surveilled today by Google, thanks.

: "Let's champion decentralization & interoperability together! 🦾" and "without compromise!"

Makes all videos in the blogpost only available via a centralized, non-interoperable surveillance platform.

#Nextcloud #Privacy #Youtube

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?

#Nextcloud #Hub9 #Peertube #Youtube #FOSS #Google #Privacy #Decentralization

Decentralization is somewhere over there... way over there... in the distance... far from any of our videos.

#Peertube #YouTube #Privacy #Decentralization #Centralization #SurveillanceCapitalism #YouTube #Google #GAFAM

These sound like nice improvements.

It would also be nice to not be forced by Nextcloud onto a centralized, proprietary, monopoly surveillance platform to see them.

Peertube is a thing. So is Pixelfed. Heck, even on Mastodon, short videos are a thing.

#Nextcloud #YouTube #Peertube #FOSS #Decentralization #Fediverse #Pixelfed #Mastodon

So will they be made available to watch on Peertube, or at least streamed on Owncast, or will you be pushing people to a centralized, proprietary, privacy invasive, advertising platform as usual?
