I recently posted a video of the Jaleel Stallings case but a number of people without Google accounts want to see the video, and so I'd like to post it on another platform. Any recommendations?

I want to like peer tube, but as an old man, i find it impossible to navigate. Odyssey, seems, on the surface okay, until I'm bombarded with Trumper type people and their nonsensical content.

What i do, and don't judge, is watch YouTube through the FreeTube app (invidious) in my defense, most of the YouTubers i follow, taught me how to do that, so i don't feel guilty of ripping them off. There is one exception..there is a monthly YouTuber i watch that shows gay culture through the lense of old TV and movies ...Matt Baum, and that makes me feel bad, but I really try to limit the reach of Google on my laptop.

I feel like peertube is still a beta program, like it's not finished at all. Mostly UI wise.

I hope you are correct, sexy peaches! Honestly, i want to love peer tube...i just have a hard time with it right now.

PS...(if you remember me) i upgraded my x220 Thinkpad memory...i didn't even need the article you shared with me...it was that easy! Yes, the machine is boxy and not glamorous, but something should be said when even I can upgrade an old machine into something pretty snappy for $100. I'm a Thinkpad user for life!

Wow that is so great to hear! It's a wonderful computer. You are running linux on it I guess? Does it have an SSD?

[โ€“] stopit@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm running Arch i bought it for it's size to carry and i need the wifi. It still has the hard drive, but I'm not a huge speed needer, the memory is because i like to use virtualization sometimes. I'm gonna pass on the ssd

You should reaaaaally get an SSD, you would probably save power as well, because it's not as active. Also it would be 397598374x faster ^^
