Yeah, I’m on kbin.social and for some reason we don’t accept !community, only @community here. I just always link 'cause it’s so hard to find stuff lmao.

One day we’ll have truly seamless (non-janky) content conversion.

Here’s that write-up for future readers!

I was about to reply to that write up here but I’ll reply in the correct comment section lol.

There’s an About section, saying the instance has just under 1,000 videos, and is using about 250 gigs right now. (If you include federated videos, then it’s 63,000 videos though lol.)

I agree with you here, it sure looks like being a new video platform is a very difficult game to play. And asking for people to donate to MakerTube specifically rather than any of the myriad of other peertube platforms seems like a very uphill battle too lol.

I do think that it would be good for all of us to get used to contributing to the operations costs of platforms where the users aren’t the product. But yeah, there’s definitely going to be growing pains lol.
