Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

Fun fact: the no-oil administration did this for Iraqi politicians.

damn, they came down pretty fast and hard on that, and in a way that silences information about it from getting out beyond their own narrative.

really concrete example to show how these corporate platforms will never be hijacked, and that the old school move of living in exile somewhere else (not the Metropole) and using hostile infrastructure to distribute/educate is probably still the move.

BRICS payment system can't get here fast enough.

Definitely not blaming this guy, but this really pushes me into avoiding corporate web services.

Ya'll heard about TankieTube? *Pulls out flyer*

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 15 points 6 months ago (1 children)

If you don't mind me asking, are you safe? Is TankieTube being deployed acknowledging the full nature of the cyber-dystopia we live under? Things like being available on Tor, accepting non-traceable funds, etc. Like if someone starts trying to push information like what this guy was doing on your platform would your hosting take you down? Can you be attacked for Copyright/DMCA stuff?

If my hosting provider suddenly nuked the TankieTube server, I could bring the website back online within a few hours. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of hosts out there. Some even advertise themselves as "DMCA-ignored".

I've gotten, so far, one formal DMCA notice. It was for the Estonian dub of Dune: Prophecy. I deleted the video quickly to make my host happy. There are at least a thousand more copyright videos on TT, so the complaint rate is <0.1%.

PeerTube doesn't work on Tor.

Are you talking about non-traceable funds for donations or server bills? I created Furry Varmint LLC to shield my identity with some of the financial stuff (no joke), but I'm not using crypto or anything like that.

I was thinking donations, but having been familiar with how credit card processors treat adult related performers, that's probably something to think about as well.

Communist countries are so authoritarian.

Meanwhile...

Also a great metaphor for how US foreign policy works.

Compare this to the fashoids who scream about being "censored".

Only 34k views!? I knew the communists were shadowbanning my tweets! frothingfash

nypd made the video stop loading after the first minute

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 15 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Is this a joke about the abrupt ending or are you having streaming issues I should look into?

I had to refresh the page to get it to load the second half

I've seen this guy. He's also on TikTok. He has a series of vids there.

EDIT: Found him on TikTok. @comrade.workwear6

Just more evidence to my theory that the internet will eventually just be a corporate intranet. This is legitimately the only site I use

I keep telling my friends and family to leave the internet behind but that’s a pipe dream let’s be honest
