If the fediverse can focus on integrating content from from other fediverse sources extremely organically, the fediverse will win. I shouldn't have to leave Lemmy to watch this video.

You need to leave? I could just watch it on the timeline. Using jerboa, I guess it depends on client.

Woah, I've been on Eternity for quite a while and have heard about Jerboa a bunch in comments! Finally downloaded it based on this comment and sure enough, this video was the first thing in my feed and it even auto played silently on the thumbnail! (Turning that off immediately though lol)

Thanks for the recommend!! ❤️

Ok web, its embedded. On mobile, I have to hop out.

It's embedded for me ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Time for a new client, it sounds like 🖖🏼🤓

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

On voyager, I have to go out of client.

Woah weird, I just watched it by clicking on it in voyager. Maybe something with the instance I'm logged in to?

(Ok, voyager opens the loop link in an embedded browser window,)

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

yeah thats what I'm talking about.

[–] froh42@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Ok, it sounded like you needed to manually open it outside. I agree it's not perfect and can be improved , but it still works without needing to click too often.

[–] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

Voyager sounds pretty rough, try Jerboa instead, that's the good one.

[–] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Huh? I watched it in the app (Jerboa) and it was no problem, I downloaded it too, and sync'd to my immich server, of course 🤓

Are there some federated video sites? Most of the video results in duckduckgo are hosted by the tech giants, would be cool if there was some alternatives

[–] night_petal@piefed.social 10 points 2 days ago

PeerTube is the biggest player for fediverse video as far as I know. There is also Loops, which is where this video is hosted.

Did you have to leave on .world? I didn't have to on my instance, but I don't know exactly how all that works.

In this case I'd say it's especially good for the sake of loops rather than lemmy. Loops is quite a small platform, and looking at it now, this post has 23 likes and 2 comments. But two posts I've seen on lemmy, totaling ~800 upvotes and ~45 comments.

Seems like pulling that info into loops would make it all feel much more lively, though I'm sure this isn't insight to the already busy loops creator!
