mostly youtube channels and online webcomics (xkcd my beloved), although there is the occassional podcast (none of which I have listened to)

Finally, the witch-gnome war has come to it's inevitable conclusion.

heads or tails?

So about 336 and 420 a week, respectively

When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large. And now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs, so I'm roughly the size of a barge.

also streaming services tend not to have comments, which can halt discussion, though that can be remedied with forums, like how youtube creators used to post their stuff to subreddits

I don't know about an alternative per se, as youtube's whole thing is user generated content, which means alternative-wise PeerTube and it's ilk are more fitting, though far lacking in the depth, breadth, and wealth of content found on the former. Nebula is almost the opposite of that, being a more curated catalogue of content in exchange for being a paid service. Note, I myself don't have Nebula yet, but I do use something similar (Dropout.tv) Ultimately I think they're just fundamentally different use cases, and fit more like an alternative to streaming services than youtube including the faults that come with not having a massive multinational company backing them for years, as does PeerTube.

thanks! I'll have to set something up when im not so busy, useful resources though :)

yeah, I myself was already getting a little uncomfortable with how far proton was branching out. It's a good thing that I was already making a transition to using my own domain using aliases through eforw.com

I suppose I'll look for a decent service (maybe with spreadsheet support this time) and try to spin something up next week

it's worth some consideration I suppose. so long as it's not too resource intensive, it could be good to spin it up on my vps space

and it's working fantastically, congratulations! I've been considering self-hosting for a while now but I'm afraid of the responsibility :P

I only found out since I used standard notes before the ownership thing, I suppose I'm gonna have to look for a syncing note taking service again.

gonna quickly post here, since I don't know quite where else would be good, but I noticed sometime last year that the website, https://standardnotes.com/ (a product owned by proton) seems to use a massive amount of AI generated imagery.

also: I thought I was a fool for not getting lifetime visionary when I could, now a little less so :)

infodump harder

It's mainly finding videos for me. I've been able to find a few interesting ones, but largely it's either difficult to find, or not there at all. I myself have actually been considering making some videos to help the content drought, but then the ideas, or knowledge of what people could be receptive to doesn't quite come.

also as a newpipe user, being able to search all of my selected instances at once, or with sepiasearch could be nice, but thats not up to peertube

that's wonderful to hear! every new modding tool in the arsenal is massive. I look forward to it! sincerely, someone who has a windows dual boot exclusively to be able to use the creation kit.

you're right, but these forums also crowdsource information which can be sorely needed, such as debugging help and problem resolution. unless we provide an alternate hub for this, we aren't likely to see the dominance of these common forums cease.

I think reddit has a huge advantage due to search engine indexing, and the wide berth of communities which provide support for technical issues or nicher interests. It kind of brought all these into one place, which im sure is excellent in regards to SEO

you're not wrong! back when i was considering mastodon, i found finding a good client difficult, and i understand plenty of people aren't too fond of just using the sites anymore.
