Big Tech gatekeepers want you to think bootstrapping a video platform is impossible.
Reality check: With edge computing & client-side transcoding, any dev can build a TikTok alternative at a fraction of the cost.
Don't let Web2 giants gatekeep creator innovation and monetization.
Time to disrupt short-form video. Join the open creator revolution 🚀

in reply to dansup • • •The issue with it Dan, is great if your a Tiktok app, but for a podcast hosting company or a video sharing company it is a little different we are not dealing with 30 second clips we are dealing with 1h to 3h 4K video.
It's very costly, and if you have cracked that code, would love to see an open source version of it, as that could be a game changer

You know #Peertube (also with podcast plugin) and #Castopod ?
It's already invented and federating with the fediverse.

But only maybe..
Maybe you can invent a compression-technique for better video-filesizes?
Can you?
Or do some magic... can you?
