Hey Masto, I can't even remember the name of the video platform in the fedi because last I looked it was not done baking.
A lot of people on TikTok, and I mean a lot are saying they'll leave if Meta buys TikTok.
Prime opportunity. Helloooo.
But I know it's not done baking enough to onload all those people from TikTok.
Shame really.
Wonder where they'll end up.
@juliewebgirl
when we met you wanted an Open Source platform that was basically YouTube.
The only semi viable option was the worst fucking PHP code I've ever seen. That was twelve years ago. I worked on Horde which is my second worst PHP experience (and I learned it in two weeks).
Bad.
Pixel is really nice. Just saying.
Horde. Fuck.
IceMelt went through mergers and it was blah@foo so he wanted me to build a base. Fucking redhead server that was EOL... lemme think.... ah Cobalt Servers. Fucking junk.
Taught myself PHP in two weeks to bring that crap up. Simple LAMP now, was emerging at the time.
Horde. So ew. I have several hundred lines of code in that project. *twitch*
However, that being said: I invented cloud storage, don't think much of it these days. Don't care anymore.

UCLA was using Horde for students when I was there seven years ago on the TLS update (Julie let me go to SoCal to think and get space to change crypto, read CertBot integration).
Tough year.
