You can see the current median price here: https://siascan.com/

The storage providers set their own prices and the renters set how much they want to pay.

Just storing data is very cheap at $1.51/TB.

Some in the fediverse ask why I'm not on Peertube. Here's the problem (and it's not insurmountable): right now, there's no easy path towards sustainable content production when the audience for the content is 100x smaller, and the number of patrons/sponsors remains proportionally the same.

How is this preventing Jeff from also uploading his videos to PeerTube? It can literally be automated by PeerTube.

If the Linux Experiment can, then why not Jeff as well?

I have used it before and it worked just fine. Just don’t use it for PeerTube 😅

Siacoin.

Have you considered implementing Librapay into PeerTube? Would be a nice tool for viewers to fast and easily support content creators.

Who are you talking to?

How is cross-posting spam?

In my experience a stable distribution is a “set and forget”, unless you start tinkering with it.

I have countless of users where I’ve installed something like Linux Mint and it’s been literally running for years without any issues. These users have no idea how to use a computer, except for logging in and opening the browser.

Obviously the more complex a setup, the more shit can go wrong.

The Memester!

Most people who go out and buy a computer doesn't understand what an OS is. If Linux was standard when you bought a PC, it would be the dominating OS. I mean, you could switch the OS to Linux on the computers and I think most people wouldn't realise when they buy it lol

People don’t like pewdiepie I guess

Yes. You can mirror videos from other instances. This also work as a kind of redundancy, if the PeerTube instance with the original video is down.

PeerTube is a video sharing platform, just like YouTube or Vimeo. Videos you watch on PeerTube is hosted on a PeerTube instance.

You are right, but the users also need to be watching the video at the same resolution. A PeerTube instance can also function as a peer.

If multiple people are watching the same video, at the same resolution, it uses WebRTC (HLS P2P) to share data between them, saving bandwidth from the PeerTube instance.

A PeerTube instance can also function as a peer (seed) for another PeerTube instance.

What do you mean? It’s a video made by The Linux Experiment, where he talks about the news.

It's actually a different thumbnail from the YouTube version and I wouldn't call this stupid. You only see the eyes and no facial reaction.

Doesn’t work with all yet though. At least not on iOS 😭
