I had contacts that called, let the phone ring once or twice in order to ensure a missed call on my end, end the call and wait for me to return the call.
Top 12h for All, New for Local(small, country specific instance).
Who use Active anyway? I have no idea what’s that for. Because it looks and function very similar to New Comment. Hot is just New but also…Active? Because it will show both new content and also post from days or even weeks ago lol
It’s easy for really old posts to get necro’d in Active sort. Not necessarily a bad thing, but if you use the “feed” to keep up with the latest then it’ll cloud your listings a bit. A lot of people don’t look at the post date right away (especially those of us from alien site since we’re still operating on old habits).
Hot also had a bug that pushed old posts up, IIRC? Maybe i’m thinking of Active; I can’t remember off the top of my head as I type this. Anyway I think Active is based on recent comment activity and Hot is based on recent voting activity. Nothing wrong with either, but I am honestly appreciating the “Top X hours” methods to keep up with recent news and events and to keep things fresh.
We’re still in the “oh shit activity has increased by a factor of a thousand, we need to make the database not crash” phase of development of Lemmy (and kbin) so I’d expect that eventually the feed sorts will be looked at and tweaked. Just needs a bit of attention to get what you are looking for at the moment.
Honestly that makes a ton of sense to me. The only real/sort of real problem I have with the sort from the “last X hours” is that I feel like as someone who doesn’t regularly check the site I would miss a lot of posts I wouldn’t normally see. That’s just my perspective. Thanks for the insight though.
A movie about Beanie Babies just came out starrimg Zach Galafanakis, one of those “true story of the 80’s/90’s product” movies, on crapple+. It’s ok to watch while looking at your phone and also eating.
I agree that the movie looks like crap but I can’t resist saying this, apple TV seems to be like old Netflix and taking risks on some shows that turn out GREAT. Mythic quest and severance that I watched a full season of. Currently watching silo and foundation.
I’m not saying it is a great service or anything just wanted to point out that out of all the current services out there it is the only one that releases content that feels like the ppl are just left to do their thing and no meddling like the beginning of streaming was. Now streaming is feeling more similar to how cable was creatively strangled.
Ok sorry sorry I don’t intend to disagree and argue with you I just have a loud mouth when I have to say something positive about anything
yes it does make profit. it’s revenue is over 31 billion dollars if it was not making profit after having this much revenue. Google will just delete it.
Yes, YouTube is profitable for Google. In 2022, YouTube generated an estimated $29.2 billion in revenue, and its parent company, Alphabet, reported that YouTube contributed roughly 10% to all Google revenue. YouTube’s primary revenue streams are advertising and subscription services. In 2022, advertising accounted for about 85% of YouTube’s revenue, while subscription services accounted for about 15%.
YouTube’s advertising revenue comes from a variety of sources, including:
Display ads: These are static or animated ads that appear before, during, or after videos.
Video ads: These are longer ads that play before, during, or after videos.
TrueView ads: These are skippable ads that appear before videos.
Bumper ads: These are 6-second unskippable ads that appear before videos.
Sponsored videos: These are videos that are created by advertisers and promoted on YouTube.
YouTube’s subscription services include:
YouTube Premium: This service offers ad-free viewing, background playback, and access to YouTube Originals.
YouTube Music Premium: This service offers ad-free music listening, background playback, and access to YouTube Music Originals.
YouTube’s profitability is due to a number of factors, including:
Its large user base: YouTube has over 2 billion active users per month.
Its high engagement: YouTube users watch an average of 1 hour and 15 minutes of video per day.
Its targeted advertising: YouTube’s advertising platform allows advertisers to target their ads to specific demographics and interests.
While YouTube is profitable, it is not as profitable as some other online platforms. For example, Facebook’s advertising revenue is about 98% of its total revenue. This is because YouTube shares a portion of its advertising revenue with content creators. However, YouTube’s profitability is still significant, and it is a major source of revenue for Google.
Its current operating profit is estimated to be about 3-18% of the total revenue after removing costs, which while something wont last long when you have a finite number of people to show ads and get subs from but an infinite amount of data to store and transmit worldwide.
Gonna be honest, after r/place, r/place again, Connor’s place on twitch, and r/place the third, I’m starting to feel like pixel canvases are a bit overdone
I see what you mean, and I get that we need more things other than a place clone, but for the moment at least… At least it’s still a place of communities to actually feel like communities. Maybe something like “the button”?
