Can you speak more to this? Why is this a good and sustainable solution we should consider?

Well my own usage so far consists of a mastodon list with my favorite peertube, nebula, and other video creators. Since it’s chronological, it roughly serves the same purpose as the OG YouTube subscriptions page.

Nice! Thanks for sharing!

Sick I might actually get a nebula account, though I worry about the legality (and accidentally supporting a proprietary entity right before it slaps this service down). Any details I’m missing that might assuage my fears?

spaduf OP , (edited )

The creator is a nebula employee. Don’t believe it’s officially sanctioned, but they aren’t distributing videos, just notifying of new releases. Should all be in the clear based on my limited knowledge.

Happy to see this. But personally I prefer to just subscribe it the RSS feeds. Gives me the videos I am interested from whatever platform they are on all in the same place.

I also like to have them be a bit more “durable” than my ActivityPub is right now. There I generally just scan it occasionally and frequently miss things. In my RSS reader I can mark things as read when I am done with them to not miss anything. (and don’t keep seeing the same stuff repeatedly if I keep checking back)
