@Co There are no hiding of farts in the depths of the ocean.. You will see the bubbles coming off their butt :)
@b6hydra Anytime, hope you enjoy where you end up.
Oh yea, its been up for a while now. Feel free to check it out: https://video.qoto.org
Yea, thats why i have a QOTO peertube instance too. Agreed.
@hans_w yea being unique is important. I think the idea would be that the uniqueness would come from the impromptu approach where guests or viewers can ask questions and contribute to the *cast and ultimately decide what topics I or the guests explain (I'd like to have experts on as guests so I am not doing all the explanations).
@b6hydra In that case I'd say, the choice of server/platform wont matter all that much. Just pick moderation rules that suite the community you want to be part of.
Indeed we do, and if i wind up going audio-only that is likely what I'd use. Part of me wants to do Q&A with guests where I or one of the guests explains various topics to lay people that they are interested in but usually explained in way that is too advanced.
But I want to do it organically, so someone might ask about a topic as the conversations progress, then I diagram out an explanation so viewers can follow along.
So kind of a nerdy/geeky podcast for non-scientists to discuss advanced science (or math or whatever).
@b6hydra I think all of your options are subtly different. Even QOTO isnt the same from other mastodon instances in many ways. I'm not sure there is a huge argument for any one of them unless you are looking for something very specific.
The real question is, what do **you** want to get out of your social media?
@lucifargundam I dont have the answer to any of that yet. I have had a hankering to do a *cast for some time but I am very undecided so far on the details.
@iceloops Is that really a trend? Maybe theyjust like what is familiar then
@trinsec I would never!
@realcaseyrollins You could have a war where no one or few people die, in theory
@iceloops lawl
@realcaseyrollins Depends on the war :)
@trinsec Thats because your eating the shitty french ones instead of the delicious ones you have in your garden :)
