I have a story, so I get wanting great video quality and why people get remuxes, but I have a friend who is borderline legally blind. His vision is so poor that he has to wear contacts and glasses at the same time. He has to get the remux version of things and complains about minor encoding artificacts from versions of things with smaller file sizes that I feel wouldn’t bother 99.9% of the population. Hell years ago, before he got an updated prescription, he was driving and he mentioned how bad his vision was getting and I asked him if he could read the license plate for the car stopped in front of us and he laughed and said no. Anyway, I feel like the extra quality is wasted on him. He’s like an audiophile who is hard of hearing. I just find this funny and wanted to share.

Despite the text errors, this is pretty funny

lol, what’s the gold thing to the right of the gun supposed to be, a car cigarette lighter?

Also the metal eagle talon is pretty funny

Cool, is samwaltoncaneatabagofdicks@inhell.com still available?

Same, nothing loads :(

Wait… FB/Meta is going to create instances? Somehow I missed this news and I’ll be trying to look this up after by post.

Anyway, yes they should not be allowed. They have a vested interest to destroy the Fediverse. How would they do this? Well, Microsoft has pioneered this strategy known as Embrace, Extend, and Extinguish: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguish. It’s much harder to apply these things to opensource, but we’ve all seen how much Microsoft has been Embracing Linux in the past 6-7 years.
