I had a couple of people complain that hosting videos on #PeerTube is bad with vague complaints about buffering issues. I can’t reproduce it.

Maybe some browsers don’t handle it well?

https://tube.pompat.us is my instance.

I need to host videos to support our #RDUMesh #MeshCore #MutualAid content and philosophically PeerTube feels like a better choice than YouTube. But is it watchable?

Suggestions? I have a bunch of services hosted at one cloud provider. They do not work well under #kubernetes, so they are hosted individually on small virtual machines (1 CPU, 1-2 GiB memory).

I'm moving to another cloud provider, #Scaleway, who doesn't provide that small instances and (obviously) larger instances are more expensive. Also, Scaleway is charging quite a bit for public IPv4 addresses, so I'd either have to put them behind NAT (I already have that set up) or consolidate to reduce IP address use.

What do?

I could either eat the cost, host multiple services on a single VM, or set up another layer of virtualization to split out the machines, but neither option is particularly nice. Am I overlooking something obvious?

The applications are #Pleroma (really #Akkoma), #Ghost, and #Peertube. Pleroma is written in Erlang, so it's not really possible to build Docker images for it. Last I looked, Peertube didn't have nice Docker images. Ghost does have a beta Dockerized version, so while I don't want to deal with that right now, I can just eat the cost for that temporarily.

I've already picked a cloud provider, so using another one is not an option, and Scaleway's Stardust instances are not an option as you can only have one of those per region.

Fedivizatos supratimas: kaip ActivityPub keičia socialinius tinklus

Pastaraisiais metais, diskutuojant apie alternatyvius socialinius tinklus, vis dažniau girdimas naujas terminas – Fedivisata (angl. Fediverse). Bet kas tai yra iš tikrųjų? Kaip veikia jos pagrindinis protokolas ActivityPub ir kokios platformos jai priklauso?

Kas yra Fedivisata?

Žodis „Fedivisata“ yra sudarytas iš dviejų žodžių: federacija ir visata. Tai nepriklausomų serverių (vadinamų instancijomis) tinklas, kuriame serveriai gali susikalbėti tarpusavyje.
Priešingai nei tradiciniai socialiniai tinklai, tokie kaip „Facebook“ ar „X“ (Twitter), kurie yra kontroliuojami centralizuotai, Fedivizata yra decentralizuota:

Understanding the Fediverse: How ActivityPub is Reshaping Social Media

In recent years, a new term has been gaining attention in discussions about alternative social networks: the Fediverse. But what exactly is it? How does the underlying protocol ActivityPub work—and which platforms are part of it?

What is the Fediverse?

The word Fediverse is a combination of federation and universe. It refers to a network of independent servers (called instances) that can communicate with each other.

Unlike traditional social networks like Facebook or X (Twitter), which are centrally controlled, the Fediverse is decentralized:

Anyone can run their own server
Each instance has its own rules and moderation
Users can interact across different servers

The result is an open ecosystem instead of a single platform.

The Core: How ActivityPub Works

ActivityPub is an open standard (developed by the W3C) that defines how servers in the Fediverse communicate with each other.

At its core, ActivityPub is built around two main concepts:

1. Actors

Every user, group, or even bot is considered an actor.
Example:

@user@server.com
2. Activities

Everything that happens is described as an activity:

Creating a post → Create
Following someone → Follow
Liking content → Like
Sharing content → Announce

A Simple Example

Imagine you are on Server A and follow someone on Server B:

You click “Follow”
Server A sends a Follow request to Server B
Server B confirms the request
New posts are automatically delivered to Server A

All of this happens via HTTP and JSON—similar to modern web APIs.

The Inbox & Outbox Model

ActivityPub uses a clear communication structure:

Outbox: Where a user sends activities
Inbox: Where a user receives activities

Each server manages these and distributes content to other servers.

Benefits of ActivityPub
Decentralization: No single point of control
Interoperability: Different platforms can work together
User autonomy: You choose your server
Resilience: No single point of failure
Popular Platforms in the Fediverse

The Fediverse is not one platform, but many interconnected ones:

🐘 Mastodon
Microblogging (similar to Twitter/X)
The most well-known Fediverse platform
📷 Pixelfed
Image-focused (Instagram alternative)
🎥 PeerTube
Decentralized video hosting (YouTube alternative)
✍️ WriteFreely
Blogging platform
💬 Lemmy
Link aggregation (similar to Reddit)
🎵 Funkwhale
Music streaming in the Fediverse


Why the Fediverse Matters Now

Many users are looking for alternatives to big platforms due to:

Privacy concerns
Algorithmic control
Commercialization of content

The Fediverse offers a different approach: open, community-driven, and independent.

Challenges

Despite its potential, the Fediverse also comes with challenges:

A learning curve for new users
Different moderation standards across instances
A sometimes fragmented user experience
Conclusion

The Fediverse is more than just an alternative to existing social networks—it represents a fundamental shift in how we think about online communication.

With ActivityPub as its foundation, it enables an open network that puts control and diversity back into the hands of users.
