@Sunny@slrpnk.net already has an XMPP account, as that is included in every slrpnk.net account automatically. It is very easy to set that up for most Fediverse software, and the user id is identical between Fediverse and XMPP.

Not automatically, but you can configure it to mirror certain video channels or individual videos. But I have not looked into that too much yet.

As for storage: a typical video you would find on such a platform with the different stored video resolutions and so on will take between 0.5 and 3 GB... depending on the length and how well it compresses.

Following tags is a very efficient way to curate your feed in Mastodon.

Finally finished setting up and testing a Peertube instance. The video stuff and object storage related things certainly make it more involved than other fediverse software, but overall it is working quite nicely. Just need to find some workable solution to using GPU acceleration in containers, but I think I mostly figured it out (might work after a server restart, but my sweet, sweet uptime makes me procrastinate on that 😅 ).

It is? Where? Please don't say Reddit as that is full of advertisement bots pretending to be regular users.

I am more surprised by how popular Proxmox seems to be here, which is really just adding a lot of unnecessary complexity, but I guess the GUI comments others here shared applies to it as well.

Not anymore, but afaik it is still possible with some not so bad manual work.

The longer you wait the more incompatible and harder to migrate it will get.

While right now the features have not diverged that much, only Forgejo is working on federation and due to license incompatibility it will not be possible to back-port that to Gitea.

The person that runs the website it is posted on.

https://joinsharkey.org/ seems to be the only one that survived so far.

First you need to check if your ISP gives you a public IP (can be temporary, if you are fine with using dyndns). Otherwise you will need some tunneling service or run such yourself from a VPS.

That article is highly misleading.

Ejabberd is definitly for more advanced users, but you can usually get help over at joinjabber.org (which has a webclient that you can use without an xmpp account).

But yes, Snikket and Prosody is easier to set up.
