Perhaps Friendica because it plays nicely with following groups (Threadiverse) and profiles (most of everything else).

You might be able to self-host WordPress if it is just a matter of importing. As WP is federated, you can, presumably cross-post it from there.

You might want to spin up your own PieFed instance. There is someone using that service for a similar art project - they are grouping images into similar sets and displaying them like an image board. You can pin certain images and/or change the default sorting.

Reddit is worse, it is utterly indifferent to us. We’re just the skulls getting crushed under the treads of Skynet’s tank.

Time for a Ghost community?

Yeah, it has to be frictionless or you lose people along the way.

Let me know if I can post the link. I don’t want to self promote of that’s not what folks are looking for here.

Go for it.

However, federation with PeerTube is currently broken.

The fix has been made, hopefully it’ll make it through to the next release.

Although, looking around, this channel has a “support” button with PayPal and Patreon links. It’s a little crude but works.

For ease of use, it probably has to be a bit slicker and “one-click” but it’s a start.

And content? I’ve only just started using it properly recently (here) but was happy to see a channel putting out trailers:

• https://trailers.ddigest.com/c/digital_digest_trailers

I was wondering about jailbreaking trailers from YouTube but, apparently, the studios own the copyright. I don’t think they care about YouTube channels uploading them because it is extra publicity but it is a legally gray area.

without ad revenue or subscription revenue I don’t know how quality content can come to PeerTube.

I saw a video where a YouTube channel broke down their income (I’ll try and find it but there are probably similar ones out there) and the amount coming directly from ads was quite small. Other sources of money include:

• Sponsorship
• YouTube’s built in subscription
• External subscriptions like Patreon
• Merchandise
• Physical media deals

Like Spotify, the cut from streaming isn’t great but those on it can leverage their profile in other ways.

The Fediverse still has a bit of a problem with monetisation but Ghost is working on joining and that is the equivalent of Substack with different subscription levels and I think most Fediverse services could do something similar. So Peertube could build in a “subscribe” button so people who enjoy your content could sign up to throw you a buck a month. Obviously a similar system could be added to the instance so you could donate to them, as hosting video is expensive.

I do wonder if we need a FediPay/PayFed service that other services could just plug in, so you’d have a central account across your Fediverse identities - subscribing on Pixelfed could get you subscriber exclusive Peertube content.

Welcome to The Weaselverse.

Cheers.

Following your advice I finally kicked off a side project on Infosec and it has been going well.

Pity the Lemmy/Peertube connection is broken, but it should be fixable. 🤞

Orrrrr Friendica.

Huh, I’d never heard of the Indieweb
