Mastodon on iOS adds a button to the URL share sheet to open any url within Mastodon, and if it’s an ActivityPub object, will load the post inside Mastodon
I feel like it’s because of the risky nature of video content and it appearing to be hosted by the site
I run a small instance that doesn’t have open registrations and is very limited in who it follows to prevent risky videos from accidentally being rehosted (and to host content I helped make)
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for, sometimes I get a couple people together to binge watch a bunch of movies by X actor and we rank all the movies they were in
I’m watching two specific issues on this repo that would be very helpful for that use case
this is exactly what I was envisioning, basically just better in-app video support & livestream support
i failed to explain that in the original post, but having vertical videos take up the whole vertical space of a phone would be nice (ofc w/ a setting to turn that off for people who don't enjoy those things)
maybe a feature within mlem to suggest communities that are aimed at those type of content (maybe via a #tag within the community description?) to increase discovery?
For a bit now I’ve been thinking of starting a small classic style of forum, using the top forum software (to my knowledge at least — xenForo) and writing a custom extension for it to add ActivityPub to it
Idk, I’ve realized that I don’t have a whole lot of time to keep up with live chat communities (like Discord, etc) so I started throwing the forum idea around
I’ve clicked on ads (primarily Instagram actually) because it is an ad that is for a product or service I was actually looking for but didn’t have the time/knowledge to actually go searching for it
If I remember correctly, apple also made it so iPad apps automatically work on the Vision Pro unless if the dev explicitly disables it, which is also a plus
Lemmy instances can enable an option to prevent non-admins from creating communities, so if it isn’t available on your instance (usually in the header area on the website) then your instance admins have disabled that option
hackliberty.org still links to it, although it returns a service unavailable, so it looks unmaintained
Also the most recent forum post is about how covid is a hoax
