Wait, video of three guys in baseball hats sitting around a card table with $1k of audio equipment talking about how many 8-year-olds they can beat up? Shut up and take my money
Yea, no, I don’t want video. That already exists, an 97% of video is garbage
Do you mean that there should be no more video platforms because there is one already? It never ceases to amaze me how hostile towards alternatives Fediverse users can be.
Generational shift is Apple being a direct competitor with YouTube?
Given that Apple bundled YouTube with iOS back in the day, creating a direct competitor is a bit of a shift, yes.
Video has returned. It was attempted back at the beginning too, but hosting was infeasible and it was RSS and not amalgamated on a platform.
It’s interesting how platforms are all converging on being twisted frontends for RSS. I’m disappointed that this isn’t actually the return of video podcasts. This is the is the reintroduction in captured form.
I hope at the least this becomes completion for YouTube, and other platforms compete in the space too. Netflix is planning to do this too. Maybe we can get direct video podcasts back. They are still alive for audio.
We should encourage video podcasts on proper RSS feeds with high ratio modern video compression. Though that does make me imagine the video version of automatic ad insertion. And that does not seem like fun. Hmm.
Oh what the hell did they do now
