Just a thought, from a knuckle-dragging biology scientist. TL;DR: I believe there is scope to make the hosting of a peertube instance even more lightweight in the future.

I read some time ago of people using #webAssembly to transcode video in a user's web-browser. https://blog.scottlogic.com/2020/11/23/ffmpeg-webassembly.html

Since then, I believe #WebGPU has done/is doing some clever things to improve the browser's access to the device's GPU.

I have not seen any #peertube capability that offloads video transcoding to the user in this way.

I imagine, though, that this would align well with peertube's agenda of lowering the bar to entry into web-video hosting, so I cannot help but think that this will come in time.

My own interest is seeing a #Piefed (activitypub) instance whose web-pages could #autotranslate posts into the user's own language using the user's own processing power... One day, maybe!

Thank you again for all your hard work; it is an inspiration.

The video depicts a medical procedure being performed on a baby lying on a medical table covered with a blue surgical drape. The baby is wearing a white diaper and has a blood pressure cuff on its left arm, indicating monitoring of vital signs. The baby's right leg is exposed, showing a significant wound with exposed tissue, suggesting a recent surgical intervention or treatment. A medical professional, identifiable by their hands and attire, is attending to the baby, providing care and support. The professional is seen holding the baby's hand and adjusting the blood pressure cuff, indicating a focus on the baby's well-being. The environment is clinical, with medical equipment and supplies visible in the background, including a blood pressure monitor and various medical instruments. The video captures the ongoing medical care and attention given to the baby, highlighting the professional's actions and the baby's condition. The text overlay "[@]mahmoud_jehad.25" is visible throughout the video, likely indicating the source or creator of the video.

🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 128 (a bit Clueless edition) 🎬​

Bonjour Fedi friends!

I'm having a really interesting week: 4 adult caretakers in a house with 3 little children... as I admitted to someone on here, self-hosting is FAR easier than being a referee in fights about LEGOs 😅​

Now, whenever the cousins are busy playing in the garden, I try to do a bit of work, namely: figuring out #PeerTube from the POV of a self-hoster.

Yesterday I finally understood how I could create a user account (other than "root" - the superuser created during the PeerTube installation).

Today I'm busy trying to solve another problem: how do you tell your followers you've moved to a new instance? Because yes, PeerTube is powered by #ActivityPub, but it doesn't support the MOVE function.

I rarely posted on my MakerTube account and only have 150 subscribers, who followed me when reading about it on my blog post about PeerTube.

But I have to admit, the whole "following" thing is really convoluted on PeerTube because you can follow an entire account or specific channels. And I'm a little lost regarding how I notify my followers about the change.

If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears!

Oh and some news for you first... here is my new PeerTube home: https://videos.elenarossini.com/a/ele/video-channels
