RE: The Daily Meme #680!
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Well said, passionately expressed. I can feel your belief in your words. It's inspirational. I recognize some of the ideas you bring up here, and am happy that such beliefs are shared, that such truths aren't solitary, because that's what creates society: a shared dream, a vision that all can work to achieve.
"Please go to this discord link and request yewtu.be link embeds:"
What's this? I haven't posted a vid lately. Are we required to activate them now or something?
Thanks!
Thanks for the kind words.
Embed links have to 'pre-approved' by the devs.
The corporate platforms got approved from the start, but alternative ways to view utub require additional approval.
Apparently, I am the only one here using more private, open source, ways to view utub.
Folks will make their own judgments on the why of the demonstrated fealties to corporate bs.
Comfortable slaves never rebel.™
So, the viewers of the links need to request the privilege to view them? You can't request permission to link them and then folks can just watch? That is a startlingly obstructive policy, IMHO.

My anonymizer extension blocks utub links so that they don't mine my data and cut me out of the deal.
I get tired of looking at the blocked utub links, so I encourage folks to use yewtu.be links instead, but they get blocked by peakd.
The peakd team told me if enough people ask for them, they would do the work for yewtu.be links to not be blocked.
So far, I guess not enough people have asked.
Peakd could add the anonymizer that forwards all utub links to yewtu.be instead, but that hasn't happened, yet, either.
Privacy Redirect is open source.
Some days I swear I'm going to move to i2p exclusively and leave all these creepy stalkers behind. But, if I did that, I'd miss your acerbic wit, so I don't do it.
I'm there on minds and element.
Just not much of a crowd.
