I was using it earlier and it seems to struggle with downloading anything higher than 720p. Although I’m not really fussed about the resolution of Live at the Apollo episodes.
For some equivalent posts we’ve seen significantly larger engagement numbers for Mastodon compared to X/Twitter, particularly given the relative sizes of different platforms.
I don’t do “Twitter style” social media much but when I did use my Mastodon account I found significant engagement. On Twitter my posts were invisible, but on Mastodon people found, liked, and commented on them. Conversation were good as well.
I was a beta tester for BlueSky and I found the same “invisibility” problem there. Same posts on Mastodon, Twitter, and Blue Sky and only the Mastodon ones generated responses or any acknowledgement for that matter.
I disagree, I'm able to get world events while they are happening realtime, from both reporters and lay people, and see which way the event is being colored and manipulated by comparing the two. It's invaluable.
The BBC’s iPlayer streaming service is to end downloads for users who watch on desktop or laptop computers.
Currently viewers on PCs and Macs can save programmes via the iPlayer Downloads app, but that will be closed.
“This does not affect downloads on the BBC iPlayer mobile or tablet apps and viewers can continue to stream programmes on BBC iPlayer on their PCs and Macs,” a spokesperson added.
The corporation declined to reveal how many people would be affected by the closure of downloads for users of desktops and laptops, but the decision has attracted some criticism.
And former BBC Journalist Robert Rea wrote: "This strikes me as a very bad move.
Figures released last year show traditional TV viewing had its sharpest ever decline in 2022, according to the latest annual survey of UK media consumption by broadcasting watchdog Ofcom.

That’s nice of him to say. What’s he going to do about it? So sick of all these spineless, yellow-bellied wimps saying how bad Trump is, and doing precisely fuck all. GROW A FUCKING BACKBONE, ALREADY, YOU COWARDS!
That’s nice of you to say. What do you suggest he does about it? I’m so sick of these spineless, yellow-bellied Internet commenters saying that something should be done about it and suggesting precisely fuck all. OFFER A SOLUTION, ALREADY, YOU COWARDS!
Edit: Mocking tone aside, I’m serious, what can Jens realistically do? Kick the USA out of NATO? That’s Trump’s goal anyways. The issues with Trump are an internal American issue that can’t be fixed by Norwegian politicians unfortunately.
Also I just don’t see an American getting in trouble over what can be considered a freedom of speech issue. It could also set a dangerous precedent that fascists could use to prosecute their political opponents.
Unfortunately, he is a product of the American way, remove him from the equation and some other narcissistic, imbecile will eventually walk the same walk.
Unfortunately, trump is just a symptom of a much bigger problem.
Agreed. But sometimes, you need to remove the infection first before it can heal.
Removing trump from the equation removes their rallying point and sends them back into the shadows, where we will build a beacon of light to educate them out of.
They don’t really have anyone else who has Trumps level of support, if Trump was eliminated I’m not sure who would pick up the mantle. He really is the catalyst for all of the problems, and these idiots are incapable of self-organization.
As hard as it is to believe, Trump is the brains of the operation, in as much as the operation has any brains at all.
Pirates had some of the best democracies. Being from the U.S., we have a representative democracy with representatives that get paid off legally (lobbying) to represent the rich more than the poor.
Yeah but they probably won’t get themselves organized in time for the upcoming election. The CIA supposedly have a heart attack gun, and I’m just saying no one would be that surprised if that’s the way he went.
In case anyone was wondering, Canada asked if we would still have protection if Russia invaded. Trump basically said we can go fuck ourselves. That should tell everyone everything you needed to know about Trump: HE’S. A. RUSSIAN. ASSET.
Trump is obviously an agent of Putin, he is not even hiding it any more. Putin probably has videos of Trump abusing minors on Epstein island or something similarly compromising.
No it’s worse than this. If it were based upon compromising info, Trump would be an UNWILLING participant. He is so invested in the Russian oligarchy money laundering for decades that he is a WILLING participant. He BELIEVES they are on the same team.
These two aren’t even mutually exclusive. An idiot like Trump, upon getting blackmailed, could probably convince himself that the other guy would never release his secrets because they’re such good friends.
