As usual I put a lot of effort into the chapter art, which gives some peaks of what @ColeMcCormick's film looks like. Definitely worth checking his film out directly on No Agenda Tube or via your favourite podcast app. Yes indeed, they do play video!

Zoom alternative (instant free video chat) ----> Trom (using Jitsi Meet) for Quick Chats / Meetings / Screen-share etc...
Jitsi Meet is a Zoom alternative that anyone can use without paid account for audio / video calls.
The example above runs the same software on website as "TROM Call". You can also setup you own using the same software.
A password and username is set to "tromcall" (it asks for login once you're in call) and makes a unique call every time so different people can use the same service in unique sessions and own links to calls.
Try really free instant Audio / Video / Text Chat etc!
Many good things about this kind of Jitsi Meet software:
●No install, No account. Instant.
Any Browser almost... App is small, thin footprint.
●Open Source
Other things:
- Zoom is maybe routing through China servers and therefore Chinese laws (snooping)
- Faster / simpler / less clutter
- No install / Most browsers
- No account / Instant.
- Similar technology to Zoom in Jitsi Meet but safer/more private/less corporate
Zoom maybe still uses China webspace occasionally which = China Internet Security Laws ...
....Anyway not saying your usual American app is good either but this less-for-profit helps and it's open code etc / not mining your data and calls! :)

Just by mentioning things we indirectly can promote them instead. Any news is good news (for them or the conspiracy) and doesn't teach better (sometimes)...
@hakologist I was thinking the other day that: Just by mentioning things we indirectly promote them.
So while I wouldn't want a world ignoring things, I did think the 'good' people are also promoting it and inadvertently spreading the progress of others and advertising fear almost.
A fine line but that old adage that 'any news is good news'
(advertising / announcing someone or a conspiracy can pump these things up more than the logic or other ways).
@hakologist If the idea can stick around then it can be worth it, so the body can go but spirit of things remaining is ideal, and since more bodies come you could say keeping the spirit of things is more important than constant disappearing of bodies especially after if giving a great idea to the world or just your sincere efforts.
No body escapes transition. But we can build on the constant spirit of everything.
@freemo @bonifartius Ok.
✅ if the change on QOTO is possible then just for speed I'll do 1 or 2 podcast example (not more) then we can try Nextcloud
:Nextcloud so I'll check out the Nextcloud route too either way as it does make a lot of sense.
It was mostly just so I can get rolling for first few audios without you needing to do much more.
re: Donation requests still feel very distant sometimes between providers and users. Not just this as example but many providers are far from using or involving what's possible (us as a resource!)
@jerry The length of people writing can allow people to think what is say is not positive, so I'm just saying I'm being positive on top of the existing...
but there is a lacking for doing more between "us" on various levels.
So for example (again without being attacking)
Not just "if you don't want to donate it's ok" and end of donating theme.
but more towards
"Wow what else can we offer you to give us"
"How can this guy promote us so we don't just stop the energy at money or nothing"
"Can we continue the thread in other things that circle everything we're all about" (because that solves everything including needing so much money)
📔 And just as an example so it's not virtue signalling or utopia: I got full webspace for 10/11years just by asking / having a wishlist that others could work on rather than asking / working myself for money and then paying for cold commercial webspace and person to manage it. (it was more green space at the same time too so unknowingly as the crowd or fans gets the circles a lot more tighter).
@freemo @bonifartius For now yes I think up it on qoto it's easiest / quick to change and then the nextcloud stuff later as it is a bit of a faff and anyway goes to same storage space anyway.
I'll post actual audio media separately under a public post to saying there is a new podcast (audio will not in same message but add after as 'unlisted' to solve that the audio is not federated / copied everywhere).
It means I can do things now and later consider Nextcloud etc which maybe in the end is quite similar (and increasingly apps or sites are not allowing old phones including open source things so yes just for now I would want to keep it simple only needing Mastodon my end which works everywhere.
Again upping the limit on qoto only as test and speed to release a few things for you / us to see how it turns out as an idea rather than way for you to consider Nextcloud and see if it works my end too with old browsers etc I use.
@bonifartius @freemo Agree and already considered.
I already use 32kbs or 64kbps for podcast audio (for which Opus is more adapted and smaller for voice) but perhaps not so much difference dealing at Megabyte levels of difference. Will always think more about this.
I know for sure .Ogg / Opus isn't as editable (will need to change my tools) and not as playable everywhere as mp3 but yeah now is a better time than any to promote it 11years since it's making.
Saw Android 5 mobiles play opus naturally with app.
As I recycle old mobiles I remember my mobile didn't play Opus / Vorbis (in the past) but with an app did / or I converted it to be able to edit on a mobile.
Apps today increasingly need high Android versions for basic tasks (even when they don't really need high version mobiles) so if there are low Android apps versions around 2/3/4 to record / edit opus then I'd really to know and keep old mobiles ok.
❓ Actually was looking for a an app site which can search by Android version to get those low requirement apps and not have to constantly open and close pages saying they need yesterday's high Android versions.
I am happy to see this open format more in effect and might have to change things.
I have existing podcast material in mp3 so I'll roll with that for while but not stop thinking about Opus.
@freemo @bonifartius Great. Not much more needed. I'll spear head mostly on my own and we'll see how it goes.
✔️ You boosted posts already, great (tick).
❓ Could you increase my upload limit to 100mb so that gets me able to add existing podcasts?
I have mp3 which I've done before so it can get a feel for an end result to see what has potential for future etc..,
That's it really.
--------------------------
The rest below is optional if you want to add any topic yourself (like diving)... or a template to ask other about love and logic in life
--------------------------
► So if you want, think about some text to read for yourself on a future skit or something that interests you (I'd like a mini audio skit about your diving if you're up for that). ❓
I can send you some questions as text or audio and we can show people they too can do this and send stuff in like a good old fashioned radio show 😃
I'll get building basically with stuff I have.
P.S - Making it a "Official QOTO test" just meant that you agree it's not an evil idea to try with your blessings :) not much more - though I could make a badge for fun in jest to this :)
Sorry for the heckle slightly and maybe not the focus here but moving from using Google and M$ itself seems a good shout to add here or be left here as a comment...
@j_opdenakker Sorry for the heckle slightly and maybe not the focus here but moving from using Google and M$ itself seems a good shout to add here or be left here as a comment.
It's like the holy grail of solutions (and yes do passwords accordingly).
When we are off Google and M$, then alignment from the very beginnings of internet usage itself (you're whole life, password, root keys) are then aligned to info sec type stuff. Pardon me if I'm wrong. Passwords almost seem extra beyond certain use cases and effort. Solving both is good, I'd move emails sooner than tripling security on passwords.

@jerry
@jerry Donation requests still feel very distant sometimes between providers and users.
Not just this as example but many providers are far from using or involving what's possible (us as a resource!)
So this is not ungrateful rant but providers should know it takes feelings and education to give to many things or some personality... just more than the distance currently like loading another software on.
And money is tight for everyone A) in the mental sense of releasing it while it's debt based, AND
B) from the point of view of maximising every penny we have letting richer people pay somewhat or economising as a goal for all tech.
Maybe I said too much and it will confuse you but really underlying is the relativity which many (I) don't feel (I don't have money but have time but that isn't appreciates but 'll get on to that after), so towards releasing things is more personal and actually keeping it going without a standard donations template... takes work (text and audio, video something by users).
AND FINALLY - still it's not easy to give more anonymously or universally accessible i.e Banking is only easier by bank transfer locally but paying abroad or adding U$A + verified paypal = fees - all is just crazy (almost stupid)... Yeah monero as best thing cutting from all the bad down to crypto but still not perfect for everyone.
AND REALLY FINALLY - using people's TIME ⏲️ is the key 🔑 for me using people's keyboards (user content, merging my own work, fan work).
and finding their skill (my time, skill) however low that is to get them to work for you/them/us almost like working for ourselves
ELSE we never get out of bad loops of which there are many...
just saying...
- relying on donations has it's days numbered and we knew that already just from our own life itself and forgetting / not feeling for doing things.
I / we am good at unlocking that 🔓
Anything above I can expand on but yes do give and do work on it!
My podcast 📻 I offer just so I leave it as something you can use or comment here!
"Love and Logic" Podcast link:https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111629539902807161
(by the way the pic is of a Vortex donations box, thus using a better way to encourage putting money in and being a fun thing at the same time - using me is like that too if you can find sweet spots / nice combinations)
Our TROM Call now requires a username and password in order to create a call. This is stated on the main trom.tf website. The password and username are "tromcall" and it will create a unique call session every time. Therefore it can be used by anyone.
Now it should be a lot more reliable than before.

All becoming refugees on some level or many levels... (I empathise)...
@maggiejk @Jedigirl Without reducing what you said (which I empathise with) we're all refugees under current pyramid-scheme-capitalism formation. It does need some reducing or elimination of ignorance from payers to stop paying people from taking their money and constantly using for stupid stuff.
They made the whole game of life based on pointless debt and supplying them only for us to live.
So it's almost like eliminating that stuff is eliminating the extensions of that attachment (us more-moral people)
And debt as money only devalues and makes people work harder...
Not a great game but almost "now you know why" which took me ages to realise. It's a growth from a cancer or debt environment we're in and that's hard to beat or even get willpower from people to face each other together while looking out only for themselves less and less.

@freemo @bonifartius Agree, although
█ you're not by yourself... you have us!
█ you don't need time for what I mean
✅ You just accept a pitch that sounds good (a post you've already read from users like mine who are trying without any attention) and back a few select people as a confirmed QOTO test so it's way to funnel a few people from using your popularity to them (mostly for QOTO but those who still are unconfident).
The rest will create itself here.
Your backing and encouragement helps us (or just 2 users) to test it in more of reality and purpose to realise what is - and accept if it's just a pipe dream or in reality in the long run proven (so by the time you have more time it's clearer and you don't have to start this process later).
It can prove what works done by ourselves (and also ok if it's not) I that's the main thing.
Start to shout out that "now we're trying this QOTO, so try it!" and everything will line itself.
Consider it a test space as you might well have wanted initially as a bit more than micro-blogging social. A few of us in-house talking / making with your nod will be quite painless.
I certainly mean no harm by it.
We can prove / show things while you do your other things. ⏲️
The time I feel we're losing if we (the bored isers) are giving to external companies or playing war game all the time. So without rushing it's better value something here than anywhere else.
WHAT I'M ASKING as EXAMPLE
█ Start me off by boosting my podcast post you've already seen
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111629539902807161
+ give your "approval for testing" comment and watch people go with more confidence and build a bit here as audio clips. It even proves what doesn't work so it won't fail you later,
Disclaimers can be put there as a test mode. I think more happy production can commence and someone like me will have time to talk it all out so you need not be involved apart from check in / read what you already read from time to time.
Happy to send you podcasts I've done before (I sent you some before with a Debian developer and many others).
I did also have webspace but cut down - could upload a few to temporary space
You could also up my limits temporarily and I could upload previous podcasts here 10-100mb each as a test in itself.
Not trying to cheat anyone here. And well you'll always be busy so I think it's not going to change.
What say you? (guess I'm asking for you to back me a bit / boost the podcast post and say it's more officially a QOTO test :)
@tchambers @funkwhale @Castopod Am new here... isn't there somewhere else other than apple.com as a link to send out? Thanks, just asking
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).
Podcast Examples:
1. Gary Ackerman's thoughts on AI
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111867522723922385
2. The Little Prince book

3. Fantasy genre from a fan's perspective
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111845709367492677
I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
