Call to Lemmy app/UI devs: please improve video support in c/lemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] [S] 3 points 2 years ago (1 child)

Absolutely. I’m not someone like who “I’m not doing it but you should do it this way” guy but this particular problem is bigger than a single pull request.

There are tens of apps/web UI’s with different languages/frameworks. I can’t make PR for all of them :/

    Everyone knows what they want to improve in their software. However, I am opening this post to raise awareness on this issue. It’s just a humble request.

    As you know, large video subreddits contribute greatly to Reddit reaching a large user base. For example, when you open the homepage, you can see many subreddits such as r/interestingasfuck, r/funny, r/yesyesyesyesno, r/unexpected etc.

    Lemmy is Reddit's alternative for text posts, but unfortunately not for videos at the moment. To fill this gap, I have opened the !yesyesyesno@lemy.lol community and shared a few posts. But these videos are inconsistent between applications and UI’s.

    For example;

    • Voyager can open videos inline without any problems.
    • Mlem showing it as URL and opens the browser instead of playing.
    • Lemmy default UI is worst. It doesn’t even show the link. You have to click it’s title to see the video but it’s visually not a link. (looks like this one only occurs on mobile)
    • Alexandrite shows as a link.

    Yes, video hosting is expensive. However, before solutions such as torrents and IPFS, we must ensure that direct videos work smoothly. This is my $0.02 opinion.

    Some Turkish city names translated directly into English in c/mapporn@lemmy.world
    yesyesyesno - videos that start good and end badly in c/newcommunities@lemmy.world
    chill out lil fellas in c/aww@lemmy.ml

    I’m not happy about accusing millions of people either. However, I have experienced all my life what religion can do to countries or people when it finds a gap. Especially in a religion like Islam, which is not as neutralized as other religions.

    I am aware that what all I said were cruel, unfair and racist. But I don't regret it.

    I’m from Turkey. If my ancestors were cruel like me, rather than tolerant like you; We wouldn't be governed by a right-wing, sharia-supporting government right now.

    You’ll probably don’t believe, but we used to as secular as France 25 years ago. Then these people found a gap, tricked “human rights supporters” and “LGBT” people and got supported by them. Yes, Erdogan was literally pro-LGBT back then.

    Anyways, end of story, they slowly boiled us just like the frog in the pan. Unfortunately, I see this pattern in Europe as well.
