Another thing to make clear:

You can like or comment on a PeerTube video within Mastodon by interacting with that video's post. Comments and likes on a video post in Mastodon appear automatically below the video itself on PeerTube.

However... other people's posts with the same video embedded might look similar when viewed through Mastodon, but they are actually a totally separate thing. Comments on embedded videos will not appear below the video on PeerTube.

You can see the difference in the attached screenshots: PeerTube video posts will have the video creator's address at the top, whereas Mastodon posts with a video embedded in them will have someone else's address.

You can make a PeerTube video post appear on Mastodon etc by pasting the video's URL in the search box and then clicking on it in the results.

You can embed someone's video within your own Mastodon post by just including its URL in your text.

Last year, I ran a Kickstarter campaign to produce an indie audiobook (outside of Audible’s DRM walled garden), read by Amber Benson. It was the most successful audiobook crowdfunding campaign in world history!

Facebook missed weeks of warning signs over Capitol attack, documents suggest https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/oct/23/facebook-whistleblower-january-6-capitol-attack

@em @zleap @thor I think finding official hotline is far easier than locating their account on Fedi (or anywhere, Facebook or Twitter not being exceptions).

I mean average person will hardly follow these accounts just in case and all posts are shortlived and hard to be found afterwards.

I don't mind official entities to be represented on here but it would be mostly for social aspect, not emergency response.

Also good starting point for resolving any kind of incident for average person is their instance admin or mod team. Admins are not interested in problems with their servers so they are generally helpful and are easily contacted.

This #TruthSocial software #theft story is huge!

Its international scale.

A ex-president attempts to start a #socialPlatform supposedly to support truth by #lying about the origins of the software. Labelling the #Mastodon icon a mere bug, and labelling the platform proprietary, and not upholding the #AGPL license.

Is everyone looking forward to seeing this story in the international news, where it should be?

It deserves a proper hashtag – #mastoGate?

Someone has sent me 10 e-mails worth of what looks like Q-anon type conspiracy drivel mixed in with pictures of me with the subject "Truth Social" so right now I'm wondering if I should delete them and block the sender or keep them as evidence in case it escalates lol

Based on the fact this is AGPL, their case to release all source is going to be very strong, but I wonder what enforcement will look like.

The only big concern I have is whether a judge will view Conservancy as having standing.

Trump has 30 days …
