I agree, but unlike usual blunders this was very much planned!

Sorry to hear that. I didn't mean to remind people of their personal mistakes. Hope you'll recover your password soon.

I doubt if it counts as a blunder, but thanks for sharing anyway.

Exactly. The questions section on their homepage says this: "Peer-to-peer broadcasting - It reduces server bandwidth overload if a video becomes viral;".

Compared to other fediverse platforms like mastodon and lemmy, peertube will obviously have more storage requirements though. And as usual, having many small instances is always better than a small number of large instances.

"Survival of the fittest" (when used without trying to understand its actual meaning).

Asymmetric cryptography was a game changer, before that communicating parties had to exchange the secret keys used for encryption which was very risky.

Mastodon supports account migration. You can export the list of your followers and the accounts you follow as CSV and import them from another instance. But there's no option to import posts yet.

Also, note that when you migrate all followers in the old account will get automatically unfollowed.

There is also joshuto, another ranger clone, written in rust.

I use ranger with zoxide plugin, very handy. I even use it inside neovim as well, using rnvimr plugin.

Covid helped that I guess.
