I think the problem is just the massive storage costs of holding lots of video. Youtube is king because anyone can upload whatever, at any amount, but instances of peertube have to monitor their usage closely.

I was uploading to one only for vtubers, and they said they had enough money for 6months or so without dono help, but one month someone attacked or something and just ended up consuming videos at a repeated and huge enough rate that they got a surprise bill that was just too high. They also near the end had to turn off better streaming encoding because it was bandwidth heavy.

You can disable downvotes, but I think they’re important when like, having discussions. Not just as some kind of reflex to someone having fun. And I think I can technically figure out who downvotes, but I’m not going to do that.

Also :> still positive in the end

But yeah I predicted maliciousness, but really. I don’t get why people auto downvote things that have nothing to do with them.

why they gotta be sexy. Like, I wish they had some personality, I am 99% sure buttercup would never be happy in that outfit.

I upvoted your post 1/2 way through just for the sheer effort of information. (and did continue reading, I just have nothing of value to add)

you’re not going to fault me for buying a chicken burger are you?

There are TONS of people who will do that exact thing. what is or is not a sandwich or burger (is a burger a type of sandwich?) for some reason is a stupidly contentious topic that people feel passionate about.

People take labels and their individual expectations of that label pretty emotionally.

I’ll be okay, just a little down period. Used to riding the rollercoaster.

I played in the alpha and in the closed beta, so I’m pretty far. I like it, but I am running out of content. But that is probably more because I no-lifed the content. I do have tons of materials for cooking, which is a lot of fun to do with people and the only way you can generate items that are worth selling for newer players. So if you want some help with that, hit me up!

Tired and demotivated

Chevy Ray pixel font?

I don’t think anyone thinks 4:3 was that bad, it’s just being used as a precursor/setup for “stop recording in vertical!!”

no no that’s fine! I was wondering if it was that. I like having it being a matte material without shines, but if it’s causing confusion, I can try and fix this.

Which parts are the ones causing confusion to the overall image?

Hashtags exist for that purpose. You can follow them to be put into your home feed. As well, if you use the advanced web interface (like tweet deck), you can create a column with modifiers. Such as, I have a column that searches for both #pixelart and #lowpoly, but excludes posts with #NSFW or #Lewd, as well as #Pokemon (because I have a separate column for pokemon pixel artwork & lowpoly specifically)

I have heard misskey and calckey have a sort of trending feed, but not quite algorithmic, but unsure completely.

Thank you!

At least small artists have been really signing up since last night/this morning on mastodon.art. It is already causing a wave. Calckey is trying to grab more people, but half the shit doesn’t load for me right now so they can’t take the brunt of it.

Well known bug of lemmy, refresh and it should fix itself. I’m not sure if the next update fixes that since it moves from websockets. I’ll be updating on monday!

I wish people could enjoy this without the dumb meme. It’s very adorable.

Getting real “wheeling in the cart for movie day in school” memories, except those were a lot less cool than this is.
