Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do I notify followers/subscribers to a PeerTube channel?
21·2 months agoI post videos that are already created elsewhere, so I haven’t created one except for ones I’ve taken with a phone camera.

3·2 months agoThanks, sounds like a good idea. I created a single PNG with the announcement and then tried to convert that to a webm using 3 various suggestions I found online, all involving ffmpeg. All failed. Any suggestions?

83·11 months agoRight here. Biden’s policies greatly strengthened Israel and directly helped the genocide.
Is Trump worse? I think yes. But that is still no reason to gloat or to think that endlessly supporting the lesser evil is going to produce any real changes that the world needs.

News@lemmy.world•How the Trump administration and congressional Republicans may crack down on pro-Palestinian protestersEnglish
43·1 year agoThat statement is truly incredible! Biden helped give cover to Netanyahu (in addition to endless supplies of bombs) and drew one tiny red line for a few weeks (no bunker-busters in Rafah) and that faded quickly. He stopped funding UNWRA, even when other Western countries resumed it. Continuous support for Israel in the UN Security Council.
The West Bank example is grotesque. What effect did those sanctions have? None that I can see. The IDF has begun destroying infrastructure like they have done in Gaza, in addition to all of the killings.
So no, there is no reason to defend Biden/Harris. Is Trump worse? Yes, so what about it? Should we refrain from protesting because Democrats are in power right now?

81·1 year agoAren’t the elections over? Whatever “strategic” excuse for supporting Biden/Harris is gone now. It’s a bi-partisan policy of unconditional support for Israel.
It’s true Trump will be more extreme, but there is no longer any excuse for going easy on Biden/Harris, if there ever was.

News@lemmy.world•Swing-State Voters Disillusioned With Kamala Harris Can Swap for Two Non-Swing-State VotesEnglish
916·1 year agoI just learned about this around 11:45pm ET November 4. I signed up as a swing-state voter, and in 5 minutes got connected with 2 safe-state voters who agreed to vote for Jill Stein as a swap for my (very reluctant) vote for Harris. I feel much better now. :-)

810·1 year agoSorry if you think that my posting reflects “bad faith”. I have responded to comments a few times, but generally I’m trying to get useful articles out to the Fediverse. (I also post a lot in Mastodon.)
I did write one long comment on voting for Harris, where I stated that it is a difficult decision for me, because each day I get angrier at the Biden/Harris blank check for Bibi. At the same time, I clearly don’t want Trump.

21·1 year agoThanks for the heads-up, I hadn’t seen that. Glad to see it was re-categorized as an enhancement. Hopefully, someone will work on it at some point.

2·1 year agoRight, I’m hoping that the change might be easy. If it requires major work, then no, it would be very unlikely. Thanks for responding.














Today I will create a crude little video using my phone with the announcement along with a screenshot. That should do it. Thanks for the ideas. :-)
