I think we all know that doesnt really matter at this point. As a Lemmy user I am only able to communicate with you if you post to one of our communities first. Even then I still dont even know how that works since I dont use mastodon.
On every level besides technical we are all seperated. What I proposed is that there needs to be a better way to integrate PT into all of our apps and instances in a way where we can all comment and engage while being able to discover and share videos as easily as possible. I still think using Lemmy communities is the best bet for this vs using some complicated approach.
I just dont see it happening at all. Youtube may be too big to fail unless its somehow broken off of google into a nonprofit or something. An alternative I would be happy with is us switching to the internet archive. But im sure im alone in that. I also think posting videos will soon cost money to upload rather than being spammed nonstop as data hosting costs skyrocket.
