is it somehow possible to discard #youtube-toots from #mastodons' timeline..?
@martin How do you feel about youtube toots that use the proxy hooktube? Say: https://hooktube.com/watch?v=AuA2EAgAegE
@shevek foa they'll immediately pass my current filter... ;-)
but altogether i'm not a fan of videos (of [this] kind) on the #internet.. they are missing so many things (such as #ctrl-f and skimming) and feel like a #waste of time with all the intros and outros and ads... it regularly feels like video is not the correct #format to tell the corresponding message, it's just #video because it's #hipp or something...?
@shevek
Well it the depends on what you want to communicate... For some messages, a video is for sure the best channel, but for many other things it would have been better to create an image or deliver it as text, etc...
@martin Ok. What's your favourite format then?
