There are a couple of prpeertube creators that make short form content

I think it's worth considering a model where one might be expected to provide hosting for their own video. Certainly not necessary now but probably will be if/when video on fedi takes off

I don't buy this narrative. TikTok is facing a ban because it's a huge loaded gun in the hand of a foreign adversary that is actively pushing the boundaries on covert cyber warfare. Remember how they forced users to call their reps before they could use the app? Imagine that capability used in tandem with a more traditional attack. And of course there's the potential for Russian style disinformation campaigns.

Either way, I find out seriously unlikely that it has anything to do with support for Palestine. Support for Palestine is actively growing on all platforms and I seriously doubt anybody has hard evidence that tiktok is pushing that forward.

This is super exciting. I think one of the things a lot of people are missing here is the potential for small wikis to augment existing fediverse communities. Reddit’s killer feature has always been the massive treasure trove of information for hobbyists and niche interests. There is huge potential in the fediverse to take advantage of that sort of natural collaborative knowledge building process.

It’s normal that there will be forks and alternatives

This is not the sentiment you have previously expressed in direct response to these forks and alternatives. Thinking specifically about your activity in the sublinks announcement posts.

I was having similar issues with the zigbee ones, and I believe it was a known issue with the way transitions were implemented. The solution ended up being to set short transition times across the board. Not sure if that's applicable here, but it may be worth a try.

I honestly don't remember but I do recall it's way more of a process than it used to be

Pretty utilitarian on the ol thinkpad

I haven't finished the video yet, but I am enjoying so far. It seems to me, the core pattern here is that an adherence to and internalization of these strict gender roles nearly always make people unhappy, and that unhappiness tends to get externalized as blame towards the opposite sex (sometimes even for upholding these gendered expectations). Ultimately, this is in-part a result of the fact that heavily gendered individuals tend to associate with and seek out romantic relationships with other heavily gendered individuals. I am reminded of this article:

https://www.psypost.org/adherence-to-traditional-gender-roles-linked-to-paradoxical-sexual-dynamics-in-relationships/

Which seems to find that their heavily gendered participants were having more sex but enjoying it less.

Should automatically be uploaded after the livestream for folks who couldn't catch it.

Background:

Join the subMedia crew this December as we celebrate two decades cranking out anarchist propaganda. That's right, subMedia has finally made it through its angsty teenager years. Before you know it, we'll be setting riot porn to soft jazz! So before that happens and to mark this auspicious milestone, we're throwing a series of screening events in select cities. A riot porn jamboree, if you will - culminating in a livestream screening party, where current and former crew members will be on hand to introduce some of our favourite videos, shoot the shit, and answer all your most burning questions.
